What is The Commander Initiative?

The Commander Initiative is a program envisioned by Cooper Professionals CEO Eddie Pitt based on the idea that the million-of-dollars African-American spend in the death-care industry can be harnessed to bring greater benefit to Black funeral homes and the families they serve.

In the first year The Initiative grew into a national network of leading independent funeral homes/funeral service providers performing a combined total of over 18,000 services per year. This predominately African-American network has committed to the concept of cooperative buying of essential products & services.
