Tribute gifts offer a meaningful way to honor someone special. You can also honor the late David Brown, former Executive Director of Descanso Gardens, by contributing to the David Brown Oak Restoration fund. All tribute gifts are fully tax deductible.
Honor a loved one
Honor a loved one or friend by donating in their name. A personal acknowledgement will be sent to the honoree or the family letting them know of your thoughtfulness. Your gift will support the gardens and our mission to connect people with nature and one another.
Tribute benches
Tribute benches are a lovely way to remember and honor a loved one and provide seating throughout the garden for Descanso’s guests. Your tax-deductible gift provides vital support for the gardens.

We’ve identified ideal settings for benches where guests can relax and take in nature. Our tribute benches are beautifully handcrafted from wood and feature an engraved plaque with your loved one’s name for a fixed term of 10 years.
