The Importance of Giving

“For a combined 88 years, Foundation Center and GuideStar each helped change the world by giving people the information they needed to do good.”

The Pendle Hill Annual Fund helps our community flourish as a vibrant, hospitable oasis where visitors refresh and recharge, scholars study and write, artists create, and a host of individuals as well as groups work for peace and social justice.

We asked one of our long-standing community members why it’s important to support the Annual Fund. Here is what he said:

“There are 3 reasons why I give to Pendle Hill: the bench, the bell, and the beech. The bench symbolizes our tradition of faith through daily worship since 1930, the ringing bell represents our call to community through the breaking of bread together, and the 300-year-old beech represents the “welcoming committee” of trees that hold our sacred ground for all to come and do their important work.”

– Lloyd Guindon, Director of Buildings and Grounds

Please consider a tax-deductible gift to the Annual Fund and help us keep this center of learning, growth, and spiritual grounding vibrant and strong.

Thank you!
