Make a Donation

100% of your donation will go directly toward the renovation and ongoing maintenance of Ridge Lane. Any size donation makes a huge impact and all donations are tax deductible. Our greatest challenge is fundraising and we appreciate your consideration. Thank you!

To donate, click the button below. Donations are funneled through the SF Parks Alliance, which is the fiscal sponsor of Ridge Lane Neighbors — rest assured that 100% of your contribution will go to Ridge Lane.

Attend a Ridge Lane Neighbors Meeting

Ridge Lane Neighbors holds monthly meetings that are open to the public. These meetings *almost always* occur on the first Tuesday of the month at 7:00p online. Please join us! We welcome all neighbors to learn more about and contribute to the project.

Updates to the meeting schedule will be posted on the Meetings and Activity page.

Enter your email address below to receive meeting reminders and other updates from Ridge Lane Neighbors.

If you can’t participate in the meetings but are looking for other ways to get involved, please email ridgelaneneighborssf@gmail.com to learn about other opportunities.
