Programs
In 2025 our program stood beside 46 families who faced the unimaginable loss of a child. Through your support we were able to provide financial assistance to ensure each child received a dignified and compassionate farewell regardless of their familys financial circumstances. Beyond funeral support we extended our care by offering Grief Support Boxes to many of these families. Each box was thoughtfully curated to provide comfort and healing and included: A grief journal to help process emotions through writing a book on grief and the healing journey access to grief counseling resources access to gently used clothing and essential items for family members. These small but meaningful gestures helped ease the burden during a time of profound sorrow reminding families that they are not alone. Together we are making a difference one family one farewell one act of compassion at a time.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
50% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is.
