Specialised Funeral Care for Children & Young People The Willow Tree is a not for profit foundation that serves Australian families and communities when a child or young person dies. Committed to walking beside them through their time of bereavement, The Willow Tree Foundation will support families in their choice of after death care and funeral ceremony and offer guidance in funeral planning for their child. We embrace a family’s need to honour their cultural, religious or philosophical beliefs and practices. Our vision is for all Australian families bereaved by the death of a child or young person to have access to specialised support and care.
