Funeral collections

A funeral collection page is a quick and easy way for friends and family to make a donation to a charity in memory of your loved one, while also allowing for heartfelt messages of support to be left on the page. 

The page may stay up long after the funeral has taken place, allowing others to visit with memories and messages, while also allowing for additional fundraising to take place in the loved one's memory.
