Bereavement Uniform Program

Four years ago, the Lighthouse Uniform Company introduced the Bereavement Uniform Program (BUP) to America’s Fire Service to make available a dress uniform for burial purposes to any family wanting one, at no cost to the family. The goal of the program is to change the collective consciousness of the fire service community about who is entitled to a dress uniformed funeral from some to all and provide a way to make that happen. Ultimately, the hope is to strengthen the connection between generations and raise the level and manner in which America’s Fire Service takes care of those who took care of us’.
