Care and Share Time Bank Virtual Potluck [meeting via Zoom]

Sunday, June 20, 6:30-8pm, this event will be occurring via Zoom

Welcome to the June 20 meeting of the Care and Share Time Bank (CSTB)!Our June meeting will be dedicated to end-of-life choices. We will be presented with information from Alice Faryna of the Funeral Consumers Alliance of Central Ohio [FCACO].

The FCACO Mission Statement

• To promote end-of-life planning and preparation

• To outline practical steps to take before death

• To inform and instruct the public concerning the funeral industry

• To offer reasonably-priced options for dealing with the remains at death

• To monitor the funeral industry on a local and statewide level

• To maintain public awareness through action, education, and publications

Alice adds:

“Our main focus is to educate the public about getting their affairs in order before they are terminally ill, which is a very bad time to make plans and then find out that you can’t afford them. Once you sign a contract, you can’t change your mind. The presentation will include information about rights of consumers when making arrangements for a funeral and the importance of advance directives.”

We hope that you can join us for this informative and interesting talk! As usual, our presentation will begin at 6:30pm with introductions. At approximately 6:45pm, Alice will begin her presentation.
