As an organization, we believe that every person deserves to be buried with dignity and respect, regardless of their situation or lifestyle.
Our mission is to donate a casket to low-income families of individuals that, at some point in their life, have been in the foster care system, have experienced homelessness, and have struggled with alcohol, drug, sexual or physical abuse.
We pledge ourselves to provide a standard blue casket; the same model that was used for the burial of Mario, whom this organization is named after, without regards to gender, race, ethnicity, immigration status, religion, physical or mental ability, gender expression, marital status, or sexual orientation.
