Tree of Lights

November 1st - December 4th, 2026

For forty years, our Tree of Lights ceremonies have offered members of the communities we serve a way to honor the lives of their friends and loved ones. Your donations directly support end-of-life patient care. 

Note: The beloved oak trees that have stood at the heart of our Pleasant Hill and Martinez Tree of Lights ceremonies for generations fell last year due to natural causes. Hospice East Bay has found a new tree for the Pleasant Hill ceremony. However, this year the Martinez ceremony will be combined with the Concord/Clayton ceremony (see below).

Stay tuned for details on how to purchase a light!
