Our Purpose
In 2021, Toby Tyler created The Charity Box after visiting families who had recently lost loved ones. Each family shared similar concerns: First, why couldn’t there be more than one guestbook, allowing every family member to look back on how their community came together on the toughest day of their lives? Second, why did the bereaved family have to bear the burden of organizing all the money collected and sending it out? After all the planning and emotional exhaustion that comes with arranging a funeral, why did that one detail have to linger?
The Charity Box was thoughtfully crafted to address these concerns with care, while also enhancing best practices within funeral homes.
