We are a registered charity authorized to solicit funds on behalf of individuals who cannot afford a dignified service nor announcements thereof. We help with Funeral Costs. Note that we were planing an awareness walk for Spring 2020, but due to coronavirus concerns the idea will revisited in the Fall of 2020.

Life gets more difficult when we feel the loss of a family member or dear friend who is no longer with us. Though this may be difficult to bear, there are people that cannot afford a proper and burial for someone they deeply care for. You can help them lift that burden by donating to Funeral Aid Corporation.

If you had to, could you come up with $5000 right now? Mourning a loved one is difficult enough. Help take the stress away of worrying whether or not they could give their loved one the service and life celebration they deserve.






Thank you,
The staff at Funeral Aid Corporation
We are a charity organized in accordance with US Code of Regulations 501(c)3.
