Dedicate trees to someone who matters

Support future batch mangrove planting for a birthday, in memory of someone who passed away, or in honor of a fallen service member or a firefighter. After Stripe confirms the gift and brings you back, you can make an honorary dedication linked to plot-level GPS and video evidence. It does not assign individual trees to a donor.

Who are you dedicating trees to?

For a birthday, a memory, or a life of service

Birthdays

Skip the gift card. Support future batch planting for their birthday and share an honorary dedication linked to a real evidence plot. It is not a survival guarantee or a record of donor-assigned trees.

In loving memory

Remember anyone who has passed away by supporting future batch planting. The family can open published reference coordinates and footage, but the dedication does not represent a named plot or individual trees. We do not claim a survival rate.

Fallen troops

Honor a service member who died in service, from any branch or any country. Add their rank, branch, or unit to the dedication. Families, comrades, and whole units can each dedicate.

Honoring someone who is still serving, or a veteran? The certificate maker has "in honor" wording too. Weddings, new babies, and graduations work as well: pick "Wedding, new baby, or milestone". Treegens Foundation is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any military, government, or fire service.

How it works

Three minutes from gift to certificate

1

Give the bundle

Tap a bundle and pay on Stripe's secure page. Stripe's card processing fee comes out of the gift; nothing extra is charged to you and no tip is asked.

2

Create the certificate

Stripe brings you back with a link to the dedication maker. The maker is not connected to Stripe and cannot verify a gift.

3

Give it to them

Download it as an image or a printable PDF. Hand it over, frame it, or share it. Its coordinates identify a published reference evidence plot.

Know what the certificate proves. Its coordinates identify a published evidence plot. They do not identify the recipient's trees, verify a payment, or guarantee survival. See the plot-level evidence.

If you are here because you lost someone: we are sorry. A memorial forest is a gentle thing to give a grieving family, and you can dedicate it quietly, with no public record beyond the certificate you choose to share. If you would like help setting one up, or want trees dedicated for a funeral or anniversary, write to us and a human will take care of it with you. That includes a unit, a fire station, or a family group remembering someone who died in service.

Good to know

Questions gift-givers ask

What does the ten-cent figure mean?

It is the Foundation's stated average planting cost across a batch, not a fixed price, per-tree invoice, or promise that a particular seedling belongs to the recipient. For example, $10 is shown as support equivalent to 100 mangroves.

Will the recipient know how much I spent?

No. The honorary dedication shows the average-cost mangrove equivalent, their name, your message, and a reference evidence site. It never shows or verifies the donation amount.

How fast can I get the certificate?

Immediately after Stripe confirms the payment and brings you back. The maker works independently, so it cannot verify that you donated. Download the dedication as an image or print it as a PDF.

When are the trees actually planted?

Donations support future batch planting along vulnerable coastlines; no donor-specific date, plot, or tree is promised. Published planting sites are filmed before and after, and the proof section shows exactly what that evidence looks like.

Do dedicated trees come with a survival rate?

No. We do not claim a survival rate. A donation supports future batch planting and the dedication links to reference plot evidence. It is not a survival guarantee, donor-specific allocation, or record of named trees.

Can a unit, fire station, or family group dedicate together?

Yes. Each person can give through Stripe and make their own dedication with the same name and wording. If you are organizing a larger memorial, write to us and a human will help you plan it.

Is this connected to the military or a fire service?

No. Treegens Foundation is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any military, government, or fire service. Dedications carry no official insignia. You add the rank, unit, department, or station yourself.

Is a dedication gift tax-deductible?

This site does not determine deductibility. Check the organization status and the receipt or payment record from Stripe, and ask your tax adviser about your circumstances.

The best gifts leave proof they can still open next year.

Support planting in their honor, then make the honorary dedication after Stripe confirms payment and brings you back.
