Here, residents will gather, learn, celebrate and connect, strengthening the relationships that make Green Ridge Village feel like home. Naming opportunities for the Center and its rooms provide a meaningful way to make a lasting impact and create a legacy for generations to come.

Give Today!

The Community Center will genuinely transform lives and create something exceptional for all of us. In the past, Green Ridge Village made decisions to build, renovate or expand with the faith that you would wholeheartedly support us. And you did. Because you did, our community is strong. Your support is essential to the fulfillment of this vision and to making it a reality. The community’s support will determine what Green Ridge Village grows into tomorrow. I hope you will join us.

Amber Hurley | Executive Director, Green Ridge Village

Green Ridge Village is built on a long history of philanthropy. Indeed, without Ellen Parker’s and others’ generous gifts, the community would not exist. While none of us here today had the honor to personally know Ellen Parker, one can imagine that she would be proud that we are carrying on her legacy in supporting one another and strengthening the sense of community. I extend my profound gratitude to the dedicated community members who are cultivating our historic roots and fostering growth through the Green Ridge Village Community Center. You are what makes this community exceptional.

Bethanie Constant | VP Mission Support

For almost 100 years, Green Ridge Village has become a place for older adults to find a home that has welcomed them. People are transformed when they are connected to a community. Isolation replaced by relationships enrich lives and prolong health and years. Green Ridge Village has repeatedly met that goal. The addition of this Center will add immeasurable value to what is an already a dynamic community hoping to continue to be Rooted in Community and Growing Boldly!

Rev. Dr. Lawrence Chottiner | PSL Board of Trustees member and Chair of the PSL Mission Resource Committee

Ways of Giving

We respect that for each donor who wishes to provide philanthropic support, there are personal, financial, and gift planning aspects to consider. We will collaborate with you to realize your philanthropic vision and develop a gift plan that meets your and Green Ridge Village’s needs. You may wish to consider a mix of gift types to help you achieve both your immediate and long-range philanthropic and financial goals.

Appreciated Securities: Stocks, Bonds, Mutual Funds

Giving appreciated securities is a tax-wise way to support your community. For securities held longer than one year, you may deduct the full fair market value, regardless of what you originally paid for them. You also avoid paying capital gains tax. We welcome securities gifts of all sizes. To receive transfer instructions, please contact Bethanie Constant, Vice President of Mission Support at (717) 601-0626 or bconstant@psl.org. Your name does not come with the transfer of assets; please contact us ahead of time so we can ensure timely receipt and acknowledgment.

Individual Retirement Account (IRA)

If you have an IRA and are 70 ½ or older, you may donate tax-free from your IRA in direct support of Green Ridge Village. This gift satisfies your required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year and reduces your taxable income, even if you do not itemize deductions.

Donor Advised Funds

If you have a Donor Advised Fund (DAF), you can direct the holder of your fund to make a grant to support Green Ridge Village without additionally affecting your financial position.

Trusts, Retirement Accounts, and Other Assets

Making a gift through your will, trust, bank accounts, IRA, and/or other retirement accounts allows you to support Green Ridge Village while also taking care of yourself and your heirs. During your lifetime, your assets will remain in your control, and you can make changes to your estate plan at your discretion.
