“I’m so happy to return even a small portion of what NCLC has given to me. The satisfaction of a good career, doing good work, is and has been so rewarding. I doubt I could have done it without NCLC’s help. I’m so pleased to have such an easy way to share.”

Deb Lumpkins, a Washington D.C. attorney (who has practiced consumer law in Oklahoma and Missouri) recently became a member of The NCLC Legacy Society


“I included NCLC in my estate plan for the same reason that I make multiyear pledges: to make a commitment into the future. I am a great believer in NCLC’s mission of advocacy on behalf of low-income consumers. I want NCLC to carry on its good work knowing there’s a safety net if revenues fall.”

“Giving is as much a part of my daily life as breathing, so donating to NCLC is an extension of who I am and integral to how I interact with the world. For those who have felt disposed to donate in the past but have hesitated to do so, I would say simply: Make giving a priority. In no time at all you will realize how giving impacts not only NCLC as an organization, but also your own perspective and the greater world in which we all live.”

Michael P. Malakoff, an attorney with Malakoff Doyle & Finberg, PC in Pittsburgh, PA, and a member of The NCLC Legacy Society
