So, it's D.I.Y ... where you’re welcome to take a heart or star card home, write a name or message in remembrance of someone special, and then hang it on your own Christmas tree.
➡ Donations to support hospice care for local people with a terminal illness can be made via the donation box or 'self-service' eftpos machine by each Memory Tree, which you'll find at the entrances/exits at Mitre 10 MEGA, New World Regent, PAK’nSAVE, and Countdown Tikipunga.
We appreciate the ongoing support of these business for hosting our trees, as well as Ecosse Business Systems for lending us the eftpos machines, and to Morris & Morris Funerals which will donate $1 for every $2 from the public. Thank you! 😊 Ecosse Business Systems Morris and Morris Funerals
