Contributions of Any Size Welcome
We are eager to assist St. James members and friends who wish to provide for the financial future of our congregation’s ministries and missions. “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”  Mathew 6:21

Gifts of any amount are accepted by the Foundation for the General Fund or any of the established Special Funds.  New funds based on the donor’s wishes can also be established.

The Foundation accepts individual lifetime gifts, memorial gifts, and gifts made by will or trust in any amount. The Foundation accepts monetary gifts, including the gift of stocks or bonds, as well as the gift of real property.
