Want to receive a casket?

In order to make sure we can give you one of these beautiful caskets free of charge, we have made a list of things to consider. Gavin's Gifts Charity is committed to helping as many distressed families as possible, however circumstances come up that make it difficult for us to give these caskets out. In order to avoid this, please consider the following...

• These caskets are made from a custom plan that cannot be found elsewhere.  Each one is built by hand by the owners of Gavin's Gifts Charity.
  
  
• The casket has been designed to fit perfectly into a required vault that has inside dimensions of 15" wide x 30" long x 12" tall.  The caskets actual outside dimensions are 13 1/2" wide x 27" long x 11" tall.  When contacting your funeral home AND the cemetery, please find out if they require a concrete vault, and if this casket will fit into the vault.  We have designed the casket around the typical newborn infant vault used in the Boise Valley.
  
  
• We understand this is a very difficult time for everyone involved, especially the parents and you might not feel like talking to anybody. In order to get you a casket, we have 2 options... We can either drop the casket off at the funeral home of your choice, OR we would like to meet you and we will drop the casket by your place of residence. Either way is just fine with us, we just want to be able to provide these caskets to you.
  
  
• We want to limit the availability of caskets to those who are in sudden financial distress.  Having been through this ourselves, we understand the sudden financial burden of burying your own child.
  
  
• If you are interested in getting a casket for your own stillborn child free of charge, please don't hesitate to contact us by phone or by email. We will be happy to talk with you about your situation and help where we can.
  
  
• If you are interested in having a casket SHIPPED to your hometown, we would ask that if possible someone pay for the shipping charges.  We recently shipped a casket to the Midwest from our hometown and for 2-day express it costs us $200+.  We were originally going to stay as a local charity only, but the need for caskets around the country is huge.  We want to help where we can and can provide a casket free of charge, but cannot afford to pay for shipping at this time.  Thank you for your understanding on this matter.

If you have any other questions regarding the process of getting a casket, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us.
