Donate

If you are in sympathy with the goals and programs of the Vivekananda Retreat at Ridgely, we not only welcome your pilgrimage but urge you to participate in ensuring Ridgely’s successful growth in future.

There are several ways in which you can participate as an active member of Ridgely’s future. Please note that all financial contributions to Ridgely are tax exempt.

1. Give your financial support of the Ridgely Endowment Fund to ensure its future.
2. Make a financial donation to Ridgely’s General Fund to help pay for its operational expenses.

Donate to any of the above and become a member of Ridgely’s family of supporters. Donations in the form of cash, stocks and bonds, real property, and bequests are all welcome.

To make a pledge online, please use our online form below.

Without your help to date, Ridgely could not have paid off its debt and become a success. Ridgely still has quite a way to go before it is self-sufficient. Your continued support is very important to Ridgely as it helps to spread the universal message of Vedanta in an even more successful future.

Please contact gitaprana@ridgely.org if you have any questions.
