About Us

Welcome to Ripplekids.com, home of the Ripple Kids^TM! Ripple Kids^TM is a nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring and empowering kids to take action in their communities by publicizing what their peers are doing.

Where does the name 'Ripple Kids^TM' come from?

The name comes from the idea that if one kid does something positive in her community, it will inspire someone else to do something, and so on and so on and so on. It's the ripple effect caused by one kid — a 'Ripple Kid' —taking action.

Our goal with this web site is to create an interactive experience that makes community involvement cool and fun. We want community service to become part of the mainstream conversation where hearing about the good things kids are doing is the rule rather than the exception. Here are some of the things you'll be able to do here:

• Learn about what other kids are doing
• Find resources to help you find ways to get involved in your community
• If you have an idea for your own project, or need some help getting started
• View the Parents section in the menu above if your parents have any questions

So, take a look around and remember -

We are the Ripple Kids^TM and We Can Make a Difference!
