"When my father-in-law’s health began to fail, my wife and her mom were just focused on his care. When he passed, we were not prepared to handle the necessary arrangements. You all were a wonderful and amazing blessing. We were able to have the funeral service he would have been very proud of."
- Tommy K.
In lieu of flowers, family and friends of Betty, that prefer to give a memorial gift may do so...
In lieu of flowers, the family would like to thank you for considering giving a gift in memory...
ILOF.com is a crowdfunding platform that allows extended family and friends the ability to make online donations to honor the memory of, or to help provide financial assistance towards the funeral or memorial services of a dearly departed one. All money donated is collected by the servicing funeral home on behalf of the family.
ILOF.com uses the latest technology for secure payment encryption. None of your financial information is ever stored in our servers so both donors' online payments along with our funeral home partners are safe from security concerns.
Your funeral home director will set up your loved one’s account at ILOF.com and provide you with the link for you to immediately share with all of your friends and relatives through email and all social media venues. All donated funds will be directed to the funeral home to cover the burial costs of your loved ones.
The money donated to a funeral fund is paid directly to the funeral service provider working with the family of the deceased.
Funeral funds remain open for 30 days. All donations collected through the first week will be sent to your funeral home on the 7th day. All additional collected donations will be sent on the 30th day.
Similar to others, we have a standard 5% fee to cover business and administrative costs and a 2.9% fee to cover credit card processing charges. The difference is that ILOF.com does NOT charge an additional $0.30 every time someone makes a donation while all other platforms do.
The goal of every funeral fund is to obtain the monies needed to cover all of the burial expenses, so the most important part is sharing the funeral fund link with as many friends and relatives as soon as possible through all social media outlets and your email contacts. Your funeral home director will assist you in adding the link to the obituary in order to greatly increase the probability of a successful funeral fund.
Having been in the funeral service industry for many years, we view your trust the same way we view every grieving family who has crossed our threshold; we will personally take care of you.
You can trust us with all technical aspects, security and support systems in place, the speed of releasing funds to registered partners, but ultimately it comes down to assisting you with the one added burden you’re having to carry at this time - covering your loved one’s burial costs.
As soon as the fund is created, your funeral home director will provide you with a link to share with all of your friends and relatives. It is extremely easy for them to also share with their friends in assisting you in covering the costs.

We maintain close communication with all of our partners to provide them with the tools necessary to make this process as seamless as possible.
