The Havenstone Tree of Life

Put your family on the tree

We're painting a Tree of Life mural at Havenstone. For every gift of $1,000 or more, a leaf is painted with your family's name.

Can't make it on November 14? A leaf is a beautiful way to be part of the evening — and part of the Havenstone family for good.
