In partnership with Matthews Children’s Foundation, the Cantelmi and Cantelmi Long Funeral Homes were proud to present a donation check for $1,000.00 to Messiah Lutheran Church Child Center today! The check was presented by our very own Dino Cantelmi and Justin Keiper to the Church Child Center director, Lynn Terry and Teacher, Annie Villani-Nonemacher.

Cantelmi Long Funeral Home

We have years of experience caring for families, from all walks of life. Each family comes to us because they know we are leaders in our profession, dedicated to excellence in service, and have the highest integrity. http://www.cantelmifuneralhome.com/

Messiah Lutheran Church Child Center

Since 1983, we have offered quality preschool programs, for children ages 2 through 5, in a Christian environment. We believe that preschool should be a place for children to gain self-esteem, confidence, independence, and self-discipline. http://www.messiahlutheran18017.org/

Matthews Children’s Foundation

Matthews Children’s Foundation is a nonprofit organization which supports local children’s charities across the United States. Matthews Aurora Funeral Solutions and Matthews Cemetery Products are proud to partner with our Funeral and Cemetery customers to support all aspects of child welfare. Matthews Aurora Funeral Solutions and Matthews Cemetery Products make a donation to the Foundation for every casket and memorial purchased through participating customers. Participating Funeral Homes and Cemeteries then sponsor children-focused nonprofits in their local communities to apply for grants. Grants are awarded three times a year, and participating Funeral Homes and Cemeteries present the grant award to its sponsored charitable organization. Since its inception in 1992, the Foundation has granted nearly $4 million to community-based, nonprofit children’s organizations nationwide. http://matw.com/memorialization/our-company/matthews-childrens-foundation/
