Gifts of Remembrance That Do Good
When you give trees as remembrance gifts in honor of someone who is deceased, a real tree will be planted in a U.S. National Forest in his or her honor. The trees are placed in areas that have been decimated by wildfires, so your gift will make a lasting difference and help an area of woodlands recover and regain its former beauty. The U.S. National Forest service has identified over 1,000,000 acres of forest land that is in desperate need of restoration, so the need for new trees is huge. When someone plants a tree in memory, the recipient of gift will even be able to see photographs of the trees online and learn its geographic location. This makes it as if a piece of that person whom they have lost lives on in a real, tangible place. A card accompanies the gift that fully explains the gift.
