HHARP disclaimer funds are only paid when resources are available and will not cover the entire cost of the funeral expense.  HHARP is not intended as a substitute for life insurance. With the financial support of those who give, we are able to continue to provide supplemental support for those in need. All proceeds go towards fulfilling our mission. Our events, our cost of advertising, and our upkeep of materials and the website are all done through your support. THANK YOU
