Help Me Bring Healing Art to Families Who Need It

Campaign Story

Most families who lose a beloved pet don’t realize there’s a more meaningful way to remember them.

My name is Alyson, and I’m the artist behind Alyson Whitney Co.

For over 20 years, I’ve created hand-painted pet urns—each one a joyful, colorful tribute to a dog or cat who was deeply loved. Every urn is thoughtfully made to reflect the personality, spirit, and story of the pet it honors—made to capture the connection we carry long after they’re gone.

Most crematoriums are familiar with factory-made options, but they may not realize that something this personal and hand-crafted is available—right here in the U.S.

I want to change that.

With your help, I’ll be able to create sample kits and outreach packages for crematoriums across the U.S.—so that more families have the choice to remember their pets in a beautiful, meaningful way.

Your support will help fund:

- Sample urn kits for 10–15 crematoriums

- Custom-designed brochures + lookbooks

- Shipping and outreach costs

- Website updates and follow-up marketing

This $6,000 goal helps me bring healing art into more spaces of loss—and helps pet parents everywhere feel a little more peace and joy during an incredibly hard time.

Whether you’ve lost a pet, or you simply believe in the power of personalized art to heal, your support means the world.

Let’s help more people smile through tears. One urn at a time.
