Support The Lilac Tree today!

We are a small but mighty nonprofit!

Our amazing staff team serves over 2,000 individuals a year. We know of no other nonprofit organization in the country that addresses the breadth of issues people face in separation and divorce. And we know from experience what those issues are.

With impartiality we focus on education, support and trusted resources.


I developed and continue to have friendships with some interesting, strong women whom I otherwise may never have met. That is why I continue to support and donate to this extraordinary organization. I know the support and dollars we give work their magic in their own way to each new client The Lilac Tree continues to serve.
