At Express Funeral Funding, we believe the future of the funeral profession is built through education, connection, and a shared commitment to serving families. That’s why we were honored to welcome the graduating Class of 2026 from Mid-America College of Funeral Service to our headquarters for an afternoon of learning, conversation, and celebration.
As these soon-to-be graduates prepare to begin the next chapter of their careers, we were grateful for the opportunity to spend time with the next generation of funeral professionals.
A Look Inside EFF
During their visit, students toured EFF headquarters, learned more about our company and the insurance assignment funding process, and heard firsthand how our team works alongside funeral homes across the country every day.
Our goal was simple: to provide a behind-the-scenes look at the role funding plays in helping funeral professionals serve families while sharing the importance of strong partnerships throughout the profession.
We enjoyed answering questions, discussing industry insights, and connecting with students as they prepare to enter a career built on compassion and service.
Celebrating an Important Milestone
Of course, it wasn’t all presentations.
The afternoon also included lunch, a build-your-own Dirty Soda Bar, and plenty of opportunities to relax, network, and celebrate everything the Class of 2026 has accomplished.
Graduation marks an exciting milestone, and we were proud to play a small part in recognizing their hard work before they begin serving families in communities across the country.
Looking Ahead
Supporting funeral professionals has always been at the heart of what we do. That commitment extends beyond funding solutions—it includes investing in relationships and encouraging those who will help shape the future of the profession.
We’re excited to continue that conversation in the next episode of Funding Foundations, featuring Geralda Aldajuste, Academic Dean and Program Director at Mid-America College of Funeral Service.
In this upcoming conversation, Geralda shares her journey, discusses the importance of funeral education, and offers valuable insights for both students and professionals throughout the industry.
We’re excited to make Funding Foundations more accessible than ever. Beginning with Geralda’s interview, we’ll be releasing select episodes publicly while continuing to provide exclusive interviews, educational content, and additional resources through the Express Hub. Whether you’re tuning in publicly or as a Hub user, there’s always more to discover.
Be sure to watch for the new episode, premiering August 3, and join us as we continue celebrating the people and partnerships that move our profession forward.
