RIPPLE
be the change
Farrah Qazi and Henna Raza have been friends for years.
Though their careers have taken different paths (lawyer and professional event
planner respectively), they have maintained their combined love of
community and social work.
Over the years, they have individually and collectively raised funds, gathered donations and planned events that help terminally ill children, the elderly, refugees and other disenfranchised communities.
Ripple was established to take that commitment to serving humanity to the next level.
Now, they invite you to join Ripple in the same spirit of community service and activism.
Volunteer and attend some Ripple events to see community service in action.
ABOUT US
OUR VISION
RIPPLE strives to bridge the gap between intention and action.
​
We understand that most people would like to contribute to social and community causes in a personal and meaningful way. Often, the only hindrance to these good intentions is not knowing how, why and where our resources can best be used.
That’s where we come in.
​
By partnering with a few carefully selected organizations, we aim to provide the most effective and long-lasting altruistic experience for our volunteers and the charities we support.
This means we focus on small, local efforts that can directly impact each individual or family in need, and allow our volunteers to develop a lifelong friendship and relationship with those people they seek to mentor or help in any way.
RIPPLE divests its time, energy and funds to provide the maximum benefit to local individuals and families in need.
There’s no glitz or glamour or fancy fundraisers here. This isn’t an organization to which you can simply write a check.
We want your heart, sweat and complete dedication to make RIPPLE a success.
We want you to get your families involved in our projects.
​
We want to take grassroots community activism to another level.
​
Join us in creating THE RIPPLE EFFECT.
​
Be that drop in a vast ocean that can ultimately create tidal waves of change and compassion within our neighboring communities.
