“Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”

Who we are

Ripples of Hope is a non-profit organization which inspires people to be engaged and take action in partnership with communities and non-profit organizations. We uphold a philosophy of philanthropy in action through transformative service and by maintaining partnerships that cultivate ongoing dialogue.

What we do

Ripples of Hope organizes and facilitates local and global service journeys for families and engages in projects which empower local communities. The goal is for families to experience life in a community different from their own and to partner with families from different cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. We build bridges between families and communities and service becomes the common ground for mutual understanding.
