Donate to Ring Lake Ranch

Your donations of cash, check, or by credit card help us continue the mission of Ring Lake Ranch. We depend on your generosity.

Certainly, we are living in uncertain times. As a result, there is no more important time than the present to look at the fabric of our lives and recognize the things that matter most. We hope that despite the tough times upon us, you can find the means to support us so we can continue to invest in the people that make the Ranch experience so wonderful year after year.

Bequest-Giving

When it's time to plan for the disposition of your estate, you think about the people and institutions that have played a positive role in your life. You can help provide for Ring Lake Ranch’s future for generations by including a charitable bequest in your will or revocable trust.
A bequest can deliver a specific gift or it can deliver a percentage of the balance remaining in your estate after taxes, expenses and specific bequests have been paid (what's known as the residue of your estate.) A charitable bequest or trust distribution is deductible for federal estate tax purposes, and there is no limit on the deduction your estate can claim. In addition, the gift is usually exempt from state inheritance taxes.

A bequest is easy to arrange. If you wish for more information about bequest-giving to Ring Lake Ranch, please contact Carl Koch, Director, at carl@ringlake.org or by calling 888.458.5253 toll free.

Every summer a percentage of guest fees are covered by scholarships. While we ask scholarship applicants to pay what they can, we remain committed to help them come for renewal in this sacred wilderness. These comments from one 2008 scholarship recipient make clear the value of your help:

"Since my last trip to Ring Lake two years ago, I have become the primary caregiver for both my mother and my sister. Because of the generosity of a scholarship, I was able to attend a session at Ring Lake this past August. To say that it was a lifesaver is not an overstatement.  My time there helps me better deal with the on-going demands of a family and church. Thank you so much!” G. W., pastor

Your donations help us keep the lights on and the buildings in good shape, but they also help G.W. and other good people like her renew themselves to continue making valuable contributions in our world.
