What better way to memorialize a loved one than with the planting of a tree in Israel?
For a donation of $100, The Israel America Foundation will plant a tree for a family member or friend on the occasion of birth, death (in memory of), marriage or Bar/Bas Mitzvah.
How?
Step 1,
pick the site of your tree:
You choose the site of the tree in Palmach-Grove of Kibbutz Ginossar in tiberius Israel. The Kibbutz has a museum which houses “The Jesus Boat”- an ancient craft dredged up from Lake Kinneret at the time of Christ. Also on show is Yigal Allon’s Papers (an important official at the time Israel Became a State).
Step 2
Include your name, honorees name, occasion, and list the Individual who was instrumental in having the donor make the contribution.
The individual who made the contribution is named on a Plaque as well as the person, whose is responsible for the generous action on the part of the Donor.
