Cremation Rocks Awards Call for Nominees
Announcing: The first annual Cremation Rocks Awards recognizing forward-thinking innovators in the deathcare profession!
Over the past two years, the deathcare space has seen more growth and technological development than ever before. While the pandemic did play its part in moving deathcare forward technologically, the deathcare space has also seen growing disruption in more expansive areas. Passare has developed software that pulls information directly from health records, Recompose has brought body composting to the general public, and Parting Stone has created a new form of human remains, just to name a few innovators in today’s deathcare landscape.
The goal of the Cremation Rocks Awards is to recognize today’s deathcare innovators, creators, and thought-leaders, and to encourage curiosity and openness to new ideas in the future of cremation services.
Award categories will include Eco-Consciousness, Social Justice and Equity, Marketing, Education, Branding, Experience Building, Research, and “Deathcare Rock Star of the Year”
We believe that these categories encompass eight keys to a successful future in the deathcare profession. Each area will be essential in revolutionizing the future of deathcare in America and moving this professional space forward.
The Cremation Rocks Awards:
The Eco-Consciousness Award is for a person or company that has an eco-conscious mission and has shown an outstanding initiative in educating families on green options in deathcare.
