Supporting Children and Families

The Wilbert Foundation

Families facing serious illness, loss, or grief often need support beyond practical arrangements. 

The Wilbert Foundation supports initiatives that help provide compassionate care, emotional support, bereavement resources, and meaningful opportunities for remembrance. Through its support of the Pediatric Chaplains Network and related programs, the Foundation helps create comfort, connection, and hope during life’s most difficult moments. 

By investing in resources that support children and families, the Foundation extends Wilbert’s commitment to caring beyond memorialization alone.

Remembering Veterans Through Service and Tradition

Wreaths Across America

Acts of remembrance help ensure service is never forgotten. 

Wilbert proudly supports Wreaths Across America and its mission to Remember, Honor, and Teach. Through local remembrance ceremonies and community participation opportunities such as Patriot Pair initiatives, families and funeral professionals can join together to recognize veterans and preserve their legacy. 

These traditions create meaningful moments of reflection while helping future generations understand the sacrifices made by those who served.

Honoring Those Who Serve

Commemorating First Responders

When a first responder dies in the line of duty, the loss reaches far beyond a single family. Entire communities grieve the loss of someone who dedicated their life to serving others. 

Through the Commemorating First Responders Program, Wilbert and participating funeral professionals help provide meaningful tributes for eligible families. Depending on arrangements and local participation, support may include memorial products, personalization opportunities, and graveside service support. 

Wilbert also participates in National Police Week and Peace Officers Memorial Day, helping preserve the stories and sacrifices of those who served.
