memorial gift
Honor someone's memory
A memorial gift is a donation made in honor of someone who has died, typically to a charity or organization the deceased supported or that addresses their cause of death.
Obituaries often request memorial gifts in lieu of flowers: Memorial gifts may be made to the American Heart Association.
The gift commemorates the person while benefiting others.
