Gather Partners With Arbor Day Foundation

BOISE, Idaho — Gather, the leading funeral home software company, is excited to announce a groundbreaking partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, a renowned non-profit organization dedicated to environmental conservation and sustainable practices.

This collaboration aims to improve the way families honor their loved ones by introducing the option of planting memorial trees through Gather’s Remember Pages, while also helping Arbor Day reach its goal of planting 500 million more trees by 2027.

In a world where environmental consciousness is paramount, the partnership between Gather and the Arbor Day Foundation offers an eco-friendly alternative to traditional memorial gestures. Through Remember Pages, a personalized digital space created by funeral homes to commemorate loved ones, families can now purchase memorial trees that will be planted in honor of the deceased.

These living tributes provide a lasting connection between the family and nature, creating a legacy that flourishes and grows over time.

How The Partnership Works

As a testament to their commitment to the funeral homes that adopt this innovative service, Gather is pleased to offer 15% of the commissions from memorial tree purchases directly back to participating funeral homes. This not only provides an additional revenue stream for funeral homes, but also reinforces their dedication to providing unique and meaningful experiences to grieving families.

Memorial Tree Options Have Never Been Easier For Families and Funeral Homes

By joining forces, Gather and Arbor Day Foundation are pioneering a compassionate and ecologically conscious approach to remembering loved ones. Through this partnership, families can find solace in knowing that their tribute not only celebrates the life of their loved ones but also contributes to the preservation and growth of our natural world.
