In today's business climate, what is considered a "good" company is one that is committed to social responsibility for the community and environment. A "good company" is active in the community, treats both employees and customers respectfully and fairly. In short, it is one which focuses on providing social as well as economic value to their community.

Cremation Society of Berks County, Inc. expresses the qualities of a socially responsible company in 3 ways:

1) We Do Our Best to Reduce Our Environmental Impact

Our funeral home has always cared deeply about Berks County and surrounding communities. We continue to do what we can to preserve the natural beauty of Reading, Pa, and ensure the highest quality of its citizens. We have taken steps to limit electrical consumption wherever and whenever possible, we regularly perform scheduled maintenance at our crematory to help reduce emissions, and we have a stringent recycling program in place.

2) We Enrich the Community with Education

Our funeral home has made it a priority to educate our Reading area citizens about cremation, the value of planning funeral services ahead of time, and how to deal with grief. Our experienced funeral directors and cremation experts are always talking with families about their options whether it be at our funeral home, at community events, at their residences, over the phone, by email, or any other way they come into contact. This website itself provides a plethora of useful information.

3) Contributing to Philanthropic Activities & Organizations

As workers in the funeral industry, our staff members are all “givers” by nature. Therefore, it is no surprise that our staff take part in numerous philanthropic activities in the Reading area. Cremation Society of Berks County, Inc. is fully committed to improving the well-being of Reading, Pa and all surrounding communities.
