WidowWise LLC Acquires Widow411 to Consolidate and Expand Free Resources for Widowed Individuals Nationwide

SARASOTA, Fla. - March 26, 2026 - WidowWise LLC has acquired Widow411, a digital education platform founded to support widows navigating the emotional and practical challenges following the loss of a spouse. The acquisition brings together two widely respected widow-support organizations, expanding access to educational, emotional, and financial resources for people navigating the loss of a spouse.

Founded in 2018, Widow411 has developed into a widely used resource offering evergreen educational content, guided programs, and an engaged subscriber community. The platform is known for its empathetic, experience-based approach and its focus on supporting widows at every stage of their journey.

The acquisition also marks a meaningful expansion for Wings for Widows, which has historically focused - and continues to focus - on helping widowed individuals navigate the financial and practical matters that follow the loss of a spouse, a transition that affects nearly one million Americans every year. With the addition of Widow411's assets, Wings for Widows is deepening its commitment to the emotional dimension of loss, from bereavement through renewal and rediscovery. Wings for Widows welcomed nearly 100,000 visitors in 2025, and its free resources and pro bono financial coaching services continue to reach people at their most vulnerable moments.

"Building Widow411 over the past eight years has been both a personal journey and a professional mission," said Kim Murray, founder of Widow411. "I've collaborated with Chris Bentley for years in the widow space and trust his integrity and commitment to serving this community. I'm confident WidowWise LLC is the right home to carry this work forward."

"Widow411 represents exactly the kind of high-quality, compassionate resource that widowed individuals deserve to access freely," said Chris Bentley, Managing Director of WidowWise LLC and founder and Executive Director of Wings for Widows. "By bringing Widow411 into our family of organizations, we are not only preserving Kim's exceptional work - we are making it more accessible than ever before. This acquisition reflects our belief that the best support for widowed people must address the whole person: the financial, the practical, and the emotional."

A structured transition period will ensure continuity for the Widow411 community. Content will be thoughtfully integrated into WidowWise University's on-demand learning platform and the Wings for Widows Resource Center, with most assets available at no cost to visitors.
