Our annual holiday fundraising tradition is back again for another year. The Tree of Life was created to benefit the CRMC Foundation and support all of the ongoing initiatives within our community. It also helps to boost the holiday spirits at the hospital with a lighted display of our grounds.

During the Illumination Ceremony we come together to light the Tree of Life for the first time of the season. Each light within the display represents a donation in honor of a loved one. While the event has historically taken place in person, we will be hosting a virtual event again this year.

What You Need to Know

This year’s Tree of Life Virtual Illumination Ceremony will take place on Friday, December 10, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Due to COVID-19 precautions, it will be held virtually. All are welcome to join in the celebration from the comfort of their home by watching the event unfold live on our Facebook page.

How You Can Contribute

What makes this event so special is not the seasonal decor, but what the lights represent — your loved ones. Be sure to make a gift ahead of the Illumination Ceremony to recognize someone, either living or deceased, who has touched your life. Donations can be made online or via a mailed donation form. For more details on both of these options, and to preview the different donation options available, visit our fundraising page.
