We wanted to share with you some exciting news for 2009! 


In an effort to support our Charitable Giving Mission Statement of supporting the youth of Jefferson County, we would like to introduce the York Children’s Foundation!  The York Children’s Foundation was established to disburse funds to non-profit organizations that work for the benefit of children. 

To qualify for funding, an organizaiton's activities must be primarily directed towards the welfare and benefit of U.S. Children.  The applying organization must be exempt from Federal income tax, and have formal documents that have been filed with the Internal Revenue Service. 


If your organization is interested in applying for a grant from the York Children's Foundation, please: 
  1. Contact us for a grant application.  We would like you to submit your request via email to info@morgan-nay.com and then pull the Grant Application from our website by clicking here.
  2. Once completed, return it to the funeral home and we will supplement the grant application with the necessary letter of support from the funeral home and submit it to the York Children’s Foundation on your behalf.
  3. Grant applications are reviewed quarterly by the Board.  Only one application per organization will be accepted in any quarter.  You may apply each quarter, however, we can only submit on behalf of the first five (5) applications we receive per quarter.
  4. Funds may be requested for any purpose related to providing benefits for children (building funds, supplies, salaries, education, etc.)

We hope that you find this as exciting as we do!  We are very thrilled to offer this to the organizations that support and share our mission for charitable giving.  We feel the youth of Jefferson County are a resource to be cherished, and this is one way we hope we can assist a little more.

Beyond Goodbye, A Grief Ministry


The Morgan & Nay Funeral Centre is proud to offer Beyond Goodbye, A Grief Ministry as an extension of our Hope & Healing Program. 





We are happy to introduce improvements to our Hope & Healing Grief Ministry.







Our goal is to make the grief journey as

healthy and healing as possible and to ensure we can address the needs of each

individual and/or family we serve.  After careful prayer and

consideration, we are moving

away from the group setting and introducing a one-on-one

session structure for our Hope & Healing Grief Ministry.







We realize grief is a very personal journey,

and sometimes a group setting is not as comforting or productive for individuals

who have experienced a significant loss.  In order to better serve our clients, we

will begin to provide the opportunity for one-on-one appointments in order to

assess your grief needs, use Christian based principles to guide your journey,

and ultimately  provide additional resources or expert referrals if and when

they become necessary in order to assist in your healing.






If you are interested in this Ministry for

yourself, or someone you know who is struggling with grief, please contact the

funeral home for additional information.  This Ministry is offered through the

North Madison Christian Church and our staff liaison, Ashley

Hanson-Schutte.
