Welcome to Ripples Gainesville
Come join us in starting-up Ripples in Gainesville, Texas, the Pilot-City for a
“Pay It Forward” model-project to
Grow United Communities.
ABOUT US
What is Ripples Gainesville?
Ripples is a non-profit, service organization that matches individuals' needs and wants
with the gifts and talents of our neighbors,
in a neutral space, where no money is exchanged.
Everyday is "Pay It Forward" day at Ripples Gainesville
Our mission is to build bridges of change, one relationship at a time, that connect the people in our Community to one another through the organization of shared events, programs and services.
We aim to do this by opening a "front door" location in town that serves as a FREE public gathering & work space, smoothie, tea & snack bar, plus capably staffed "Connections Helpdesk".
We've joined forces with The City, Business Leaders and fellow Non-Profits & Service Organizations as a NEW access point for Giving and Receiving with "No Strings Attached".
Ripples wants to inspire more communities to care, like Gainesville does...where there are no "haves" or “have nots”, no cliques or clubs, and no discrimination or exploitation...just conscious connections.
Because we believe that healthy communities are the key to healthy growth...social and economic.
Ripples is a place where Paying it Forward means your money doesn't matter
and where only our expansion and interest in meeting the needs of each individual does.
