Thank you for your faithful giving to South Ridge!
Your regular and faithful financial giving enables the South Ridge congregation to fulfill its mission for people to Experience Belonging, Embrace God’s Grace, and Extend God’s Love. 15% of all financial giving received by South Ridge goes “outside our doors” to ministry efforts and partnerships both locally and globally.
Built Together 2025 Capstone Project
The Built Together 2025 Capstone Project includes the replacement of the HVAC system and major improvements and renovations to the main building of South Ridge. The cost of the project is anticipated to be $2.5 million. The full amount of all gifts given to the Capstone Project Fund will be utilized for facility projects (15% of the Capstone Project Fund will not go “outside our doors” to local or global partners).

Additional Giving Options
Invest eternally & minimize tax liability
Giving by transferring stocks may reduce your capital gains tax liability for appreciated stock. To make a stock contribution by electronic transfer, please provide your broker with our account name (South Ridge Community Church); our Vanguard Brokerage Services account number (61388644); and the DTC number (0062). If you or your broker needs any further info, please have them contact Elena Davis (edavis@southridgecc.org / 908.735.5252 x 312).
Fulfill RMD & Minimize Tax Liability
If you have passed your 70th birthday and are withdrawing a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from your IRA, you can directly allocate a portion of this amount from your IRA to South Ridge. When you donate to South Ridge in this way, it is not counted as income by the IRS and therefore not taxed, but it will count toward meeting your annual RMD.
Pursue Ongoing & Eternal Impact
Legacy Giving is not merely for the “super wealthy.” A Legacy Gift of any size enables God’s provision and blessing to you over a lifetime to continue to have an impact that aligns with your beliefs and values. An Estate Plan that integrates the distribution of your assets with your family, charitable and other financial goals, will enable you to have continued impact through people you love and organizations you value.
A planned gift of cash, stocks, a house or other possessions made through your will is the most common way to provide a Legacy Gift for South Ridge. Other options include naming South Ridge as a beneficiary for your IRA, life insurance policy, or other financial accounts. We would be glad to discuss your specific options and goals for Legacy Giving with you and your financial advisor.
