Did you know the average cost of a traditional funeral with a viewing and burial can range from $7,000 to $12,000? A funeral with cremation can average $6,000 to $7,500, while even direct cremation or burial without services can cost between $1,000 and $3,000.

For the families who reach out to us, these aren’t just numbers. They are parents grieving the unimaginable loss of a child while also trying to figure out how they will afford to lay their child to rest.

We receive many requests for assistance, and the heartbreaking reality is that we simply cannot help every family who comes to us.

Your donation can help change that. Please consider giving today so we can say “yes” to more grieving families when they need support most.

We are so grateful to our generous donors for donating their burial plots. If you have a plot that you are interested in donating, please contact us. We will provide a tax receipt for the value of your plot. The more donations, the more we are able to say yes!

If you don't have a plot, please consider a monetary gift so we can help more families beyond the plots.

Although the whole month of July is National Bereaved Parents Month, the actual day for bereavement is today, Friday, July 3rd 2026. This day has been established to support parents who have lost a baby or child of any age. Please remember all our children gone too soon. We love you and we miss you so very much.

Purchasing life insurance for your child is something no parent wants to think about. Most parents believe—and hope—that they will outlive their children. While the loss of a child is unimaginable, preparing for the unexpected can provide financial peace of mind during an incredibly difficult time. Taking time today to explore your options can help protect your family from additional financial burdens should the unthinkable occur.

In the beginning of this grief journey, everyone wants to try to somehow "fix" the pain of child loss. Friends mean well. Family members mean well. Our church family means well. But..........the hard truth is that there is nothing that can "fix" a heart that has been broken by child loss. Some how, some way, a parent has to try to find a way to live with this grief. There is absolutely nothing that can mend a heart that's been broken by the loss of a child.

Pre-planning isn't just for seniors. While no parent wants to imagine the unthinkable l, having life insurance for your children can help protect your family from unexpected financial hardship during an already devastating time.

At CBA, we receive requests from families across the coubtry who are navigating the unimaginable loss of a child. While we are grateful to provide burial plots, our assistance is sometimes limited by location and availability.

That's why support matters.

Donations help us expand our impact beyond burial plots by providing additional resources, guidance, and support to families when they need it the most. Together, we can ease some of the burden and ensure that no family has to face these challenges alone.

In honor of Funeral Poverty Awareness Week.....

How funeral costs can quietly become a financial crisis.

After a loss, families are often asked to make big decisions in just a few days — sometimes hours.

In that rush, it’s easy to:
* Agree to services without knowing the full price
* Feel guilty choosing lower-cost options
* Assume help will be available later and then find out it isn’t
* Put expenses on credit cards or take loans just to “get through it”

The more you know, the more prepared you will be!
