About Wilbert Licensee Organizations

Often, Wilbert licensee organizations are family businesses in which leadership and responsibility have passed from father and mother to a son or daughter. Likewise their customers — funeral directors and local funeral services businesses — are also frequently family-owned and operated businesses, many times persisting as such through three or four generations or more. Their customers in turn are more often than not also families, families undergoing transition through the death of a loved one. So, in this important sense, as the story of the Wilbert organization unfolds, it is a story of families.

About The Wilbert Foundation

The Wilbert Foundation is a non-profit organization providing grants and resources to help children cope with the trauma of grief and death. The Wilbert Foundation was formed in September of 2002 as a vehicle by which Wilbert and its entire Licensee Network could give back to the funeral industry and our communities.
