In April 2025, the Minnesota Funeral Directors Association (MFDA) made history by launching Women in Funeral Service (WIFS)—a dynamic community of women working across all areas of the death care profession. WIFS brings together funeral directors, funeral home owners, unlicensed staff, preneed agents, death doulas, mortuary science students, hospice professionals, cemetery and crematory staff, and others in the field for networking, idea-sharing, and learning opportunities.
Now, WIFS is making history once again with our inaugural Conference & Market—an exciting event featuring industry-relevant speakers and the chance to connect with death care professionals from across Minnesota. Join us and be part of something extraordinary! Learn more at www.mnfuneral.org/page/WIFS. SPONSOR: WIFS Conference Why Sponsor? Sponsoring the inaugural WIFS Conference is a powerful way to demonstrate your organization’s commitment to gender equality, professional development, and the empowerment of women in the death care profession. It’s also a valuable opportunity to build connections with like-minded professionals and organizations that share these values.
Many sponsorship packages include meaningful networking opportunities, allowing sponsors to engage directly with attendees from across Minnesota who represent a broad range of roles in the industry. Sponsors will receive prominent recognition in event materials, on-site signage, and digital promotions—ensuring visibility before, during, and after the event. This is a unique chance to reach key decision-makers and influencers while aligning your brand with positive, lasting impact. Sponsorship Opportunities Only 9 available! A.
