About

Be-vi-val (being + revival)

Founder’s Story

The story began when Caren Martineau celebrated a big birthday. Realizing time had unexpectedly become a fleeting commodity, curiosity led her to investigate how others approached one of life’s most significant transitions.

Following decades of creating culture change messaging for major brands, she recognized a need and opportunity to design an interactive destination filled with practical guidance and emotional support about an uncomfortable topic. Valuable information for an aging society.

It’s this kind of forward-thinking which makes Bevival a welcoming entry point— a place to explore, learn, and plan for life’s inevitable ending, long before time of need.
