Giving Tuesday - How Will You Give?

Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving where people all over the world come together to support their favorite nonprofits.

This year, the Indiana Funeral Education Foundation is participating in Giving Tuesday! Our far reaching goal is to raise fund for scholarships, education, and job fairs designed to connect the next generation of funeral professionals with funeral homes like yours—but we’ll only reach that goal through the kindness and generosity of people like you. Will you help?

Here’s how you can get involved:

Become an Issac Ball Fellow for $1000! Donate the full $1000 today or start earning your way towards the $1000 with a smaller donation (any amount accepted).

Your kindness and generosity will help strengthen the future of independent funeral service.

We are only able to further our mission of lifelong learning in funeral service because of supporters like you. We hope you’ll join us on Giving Tuesday!

A grieving family was stunned when drivers cut directly into their funeral procession. Indiana funeral directors are urging respect and reminding drivers the act is also illegal.
