St. Paul, MN — Terrybear Urns & Memorials, North America’s largest supplier of cremation products, is proud to announce that they are now an Allied Partner with the Minnesota Funeral Directors Association (MFDA).
As a St. Paul-based company, Terrybear has long supported funeral professionals throughout Minnesota and beyond. As an Allied Partner, Terrybear will further its commitment to local funeral directors by offering free, cremation-focused continuing education (CE) opportunities, the new ‘Jumpstart with LifeArt program’ – featuring a First-One-Free LifeArt cremation container for display, along with marketing materials and container setup in selection rooms – and a wide range of cremation resources designed to help MN funeral homes best serve cremation families.
“Becoming an Allied Partner with MFDA is a natural next step for us,” said Nikki Nordeen, Executive Director of Client Success & Brand Growth at Terrybear. “Minnesota is our home, and we’re proud to support the funeral professionals who serve our communities, and our own families, every day.”
The Minnesota Funeral Directors Association represents funeral service professionals across the state, promoting excellence, education, and advocacy within the industry. As an Allied Partner, Terrybear joins a select group of organizations that share MFDA’s mission to strengthen and support funeral service in Minnesota.
To kick off this new venture with MFDA, Terrybear is inviting Minnesota funeral directors to a free Continuing Education (CE) program Cremation Innovation: 5 Ways to Catapult Your Firm Ahead of Your Competition. This program is designed to help funeral homes develop a strong cremation strategy that attracts new families online and starts better conversations around their options, all while earning CE credits for their license requirements. Upcoming dates include November 5th and December 3rd.
In addition, Terrybear is offering a First-One-Free LifeArt display container, along with container display setup and marketing materials to qualifying Minnesota funeral homes, all through their ‘Jumpstart with LifeArt’ program. This free selection room display allows funeral homes to showcase LifeArt’s beautifully designed cremation container, alongside a basic cardboard box to inspire families to choose meaning when it comes to cremation and have no regrets.
