Matthews Aurora Funeral Solutions and Matthews Cemetery Products make a donation to the Foundation for every casket and memorial purchased through participating customers. Participating Funeral Homes and Cemeteries then sponsor children-focused nonprofits in their local communities to apply for grants. Grants are awarded three times a year, and participating Funeral Homes and Cemeteries present the grant award to its sponsored charitable organization. Since its inception in 1992, the Foundation has granted nearly $4 million to community-based, nonprofit children\u2019s organizations nationwide. <a href=\"http:\/\/matw.com\/memorialization\/our-company\/matthews-childrens-foundation\/\">http:\/\/matw.com\/memorialization\/our-company\/matthews-childrens-foundation\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to funeral director\u00a0Justin Keiper for sharing!<\/p>\n<div>Justin A.
