memorial donations
Gifts honoring deceased
Memorial donations are charitable contributions made in honor of someone who has died, typically in lieu of flowers at a funeral.
The obituary or family usually specifies which organization should receive the gifts: Memorial donations may be made to the American Heart Association.
The practice allows mourners to support causes meaningful to the deceased.
