Ripple Effect

Darious Monsef of Hands-on frequently speaks of a ripple effect. Well that is the idea behind Project Ripple Effect. And while it is for Milwaukee, the same idea holds where ever you are!

From the JournalSentinel

"Toss a pebble into still waters, and watch the ripple effect. That's the idea behind a new community effort to involve more people in volunteerism and philanthropy in a community that needs both."

from the ProjectRippleEffect website:

"Greater Milwaukee Project Ripple Effect is a connection between those in need and those who want to help. If all of us give just an hour a week to a cause that matters, think of the effect on our city, our communities, not to mention our culture.'"

The hour idea is HUGE! Few can donate weeks at a time, but most of us can find an hour and those hours add up!

As an aside, their web site is what I would love BonaServes to turn into.
