Funeral Cost Assistance Benevolence fund
When we lose a loved one, we are generally unable to cover the cost of internment expenses. In order to
alleviate this burden, WAAF created a funeral cost assistance fund where families pay a one-time fee of
$75 to join.
When a member of the fund (including his/her immediate family member) passes away, each
other member of the fund would donate $25 to the fund.
Our goal is to provide $4,000 for families is to supplement the cost of internment because the average
cost in our area is $5,000 to $8,000 and most impoverished families are not prepared to cover the cost of a funeral.
Back To School Program
WAAF offers an annual back to school program from the ages 6-18 years old, an where we offer
backpack, school supplies, haircuts, free food and many other things.
If you would like to donate or be part of the cause, just give us a call at 717-740-5161.
