What is OGR?

The International Order of the Golden Rule (OGR) is a professional association of independently owned and operated funeral homes dedicated to ethical service to all. Founded in 1928, it is our mission to make independent funeral homes exceptional. We do this by building and supporting member education, information exchange, professional and business development, and networking through a wide range of programs, services and resources. Our Standards of Ethical Conduct guide our members' business practices and philosophy, allowing them to provide "service measured not by gold, but by the Golden Rule." Headquartered in Indianapolis, our member funeral homes are located throughout the United States and many other countries.
