At this complimentary dinner seminar, attorney Damen Ganze will provide you with actionable information that you will be able to use for your own personal estate planning.

If you own a home, a business, or have any assets, you owe it to yourself, and your family, to get honest facts on proper estate planning.

Many past attendees that already had a simple Will were astonished to learn that they were not as protected as they thought.

Damen Ganze's Estate Planning Workshop will educate you on the legal and practical steps you should take to protect your assets, your wishes, and the people that you love.

Damen takes a common sense approach to teach you what you need to know without boring you with legalese.

You will learn:

• How to name a guardian for a minor child or grandchild


• How to avoid a long and expensive court process known as probate


• How to make your medical wishes known and ensure they are honored


• How to make sure the money you leave behind would be immediately and privately available to your family


• How to protect your spouse and children’s inheritance from creditors, predators, future divorces, and lawsuits


• How to leave behind more than just money and homes, but pass on a legacy


 

Damen Ganze is an energetic speaker that will have you clearly understand what all of these mean and how they affect your estate.

• General Durable Power of Attorney


• Healthcare Power of Attorney


• HIPAA Authorization


• Living Wills


• Wills/Probate


• Living Trusts

 

This is not a boring classroom setting where most usually struggle to retain the information. Damen uses real-life cases and examples of some of the hundreds of families he helps each year. All attendees will be able to relate to the subject matter presented.

Attorney Damen Ganze's Estate Planning Dinner Workshop is ideal for any adult to attend, whether you’re married, single, elderly, wealthy, disabled, parents, or grandparents. We even suggest you bring your adult heirs.

If you are married, we recommend that you both attend as he’ll be covering information that will pertain to both of you.

Our Community Networking Events are relaxed, guest-friendly gatherings designed to help people connect, share ideas, and learn what others in the Monumental Impact community are working on. These events bring together makers, students, parents, mentors, professionals, and community partners in an informal, welcoming setting.

New to Monumental Impact? This is the best place to start.

Our Community Orientation is a guest-friendly introduction to our makerspace, community, and how our programs work throughout the year. We’ll walk through what members have access to, how equipment training works, and how our quarterly schedule of events, services, and programs fits together.

The Makers Showcase is a guest-friendly community event where members, students, mentors, and makers share what they’ve been working on—projects, prototypes, experiments, and works-in-progress. It’s a chance to see ideas come to life, learn from others, and get inspired by the creativity happening across the Monumental Impact community.

What to expect:

• Casual conversations and introductions


• Sharing what you’re building or interested in (optional)


• Learning about upcoming events, services, and programs


• Meeting members, volunteers, and community partners

No experience is required, and there’s no pressure to pitch or present—just come as you are.

Guests are welcome.

Desired Outcomes & Goals
Participants will:

• Learn a simple framework for talking about what they do in plain, compelling language.
• Practice confident messaging for introductions, networking, and follow-ups.
• Identify common “salesy” habits and how to replace them with service-focused communication.
• Draft a short, clear message they can use across conversations, emails, and marketing.

This is an in-person class.
