Plan to join us as our Full Circle grief counselors provide rituals, music, and healing tools to comfort you and your loved ones. Tree of Light supports anyone in the community dealing with the death of a loved one, from any illness or cause, even those who weren’t Hospice Savannah patients.
Make your donation securely here – being sure to designate Tree of Light for your gift (on line 3)
Inspirational music will be performed by professional singers in partnership with the Savannah VOICE Festival. Names of those recognized with a donation in their honor or memory will be read during the forty-five minute gathering and will be displayed on our website. Additionally, people can be remembered in our printed program, if a donation is received by noon on Wednesday, Nov. 24th, 2021, labelled the honoree’s full name, as well as the donor’s full name.
As always, we are indebted to many generous corporate sponsors. Sponsorships and donations allow our Full Circle bereavement counselors to continue offering grief support to any child, teen, or adult in our community at no cost. All donors receive a commemorative ornament and donors who make gifts of $1,000 or above will be contacted by the Foundation to place a brass leaf on the Tree of Remembrance at the Hospice In-Patient Unit or at the Demere Center for Living.
Because of your generosity, no one need face loss alone.
Tree of Light will be followed up by a second virtual resource, Voices that Heal, in mid-December, to further provide tools to learn to live with grief.
