Plant a Tree in Memory – A Living Tribute Around the World
At The Gifted Tree, we plant memorial trees in U.S. National Forests and in over 40 countries worldwide — offering a meaningful, lasting way to honor the memory of loved ones.
Since 2013, we’ve helped individuals and families plant over 250,000 trees in memory of those they’ve lost. Whether you’re commemorating a friend, family member, or even a beloved pet, planting a tree in memory is a heartfelt gift that creates a legacy of love, remembrance, and renewal.
When you plant a tree in memory through The Gifted Tree, your gift does more than honor a life — it helps restore forests devastated by wildfires, deforestation, or climate change. A single tree becomes part of a lasting tribute that supports the Earth and comforts those who grieve.
