A way to honor for a lifetime the people, intentions, or ideals that you deeply cherish
A synthesis of art, sculpture, and spiritual purpose, permanently mounted on the foyer wall of Unity Hall, the Giving Tree at Unity Spiritual Center is a way to honor cherished loved ones, the intentions you have set, or the ideals you deeply believe in.
Created by master craftsman James Van Hala, the Giving Tree holds leaves of plated bronze, silver, or gold, each engraved with an enduring message of love, blessing, hope, or thanks.
The engraved leaves will remain on the tree as a lasting tribute or a special reminder to you each time you enter Unity Hall.
There are already many leaves on the tree. Over time, in a community as large as Unity Spiritual Center's, the Giving Tree will become abundant with exquisite leaves, and that abundance will unlock unlimited possibilities for projects to improve or expand our community in the years to come.
Donors making larger gifts may purchase an acorn to hang on the wall, a wooden rock to be placed at the foot of the tree, or an eagle to fly near it.
