What is Memory-Trees.com?
The loved ones who have died during this pandemic are more than a number, they are more than anonymous statistics. The stories of each loved one that is being remembered in any forest deserve to be told and shared so we remember the person, and not only the event (this pandemic) that took their lives. If the remembrance symbolised by any trees that are planted is to become truly meaningful, they must therefore be attached to the memories of real people. Memories that can be recalled and retold when people visit the trees that are planted to remember them.
Supporting Covid Memorial Day with ‘Memory-Pages’
Covid Memorial Day is an idea to light a candle and spend a moment of private remembrance for those we lost, and for those who have suffered, this year. To support this idea Memory-Trees.com is providing the ability for people to create and share a ‘Memory-Page’ of a loved one they lost. They can then share this page with friends and family on social media as part of the act of collective remembrance that is being called for on the 1st January.
It’s a simple thing, and not the full Memory-Trees system planned for next year, but we hope it will help to show people some of the human stories behind the statistics that are reported daily. It is the people shown on Memory-Pages who people have lost, and it is these people and their stories who we should be spending a moment to remember on Covid Memorial Day.
Create a ‘Memory-Page’’ for your loved one
If you have not yet created a Memory-Page for a loved one you lost during this pandemic you can do this today. Visit the Memory-Trees.com website and complete the ‘Dedicate a Tree’ request, you will then get an email with instructions on what to do next. It’s really easy to follow but if you have any issues just contact us and we will address these for you.
Once you’ve created your Memory-Page, Memory-Trees.com will then let you know as and when new functionality becomes available on your account as part of the full Memory-Tree services that are being developed for the bereaved. Services that will be designed to make your dedication to your loved one richer, more meaningful, and longer-lasting.
The Forest of Memories
The Forests of Memories will be grown in memory of people adversely affected during the Covid-19 pandemic, whilst addressing climate change, benefiting biodiversity, and establishing an educational and cultural resource for local communities. Creating a lasting tribute to people in ways that will benefit future generations.
Brilliant idea a wonderful way to remember a loved one while also helping to save our planet
