Dear Members -
Happy Holidays! This month we continue our 4th quarter focus of helping animals. We've featured some great organizations, including one started by Zach, a Ripple Kid from Florida! We've also listed ideas about how you can make a difference with your child no matter how much (or how little) time you have.
With the new year, our focus will shift to the environment for the 1st quarter (Jan-Mar). If your child or someone you know has done something to help the environment, or has quotes we can use for upcoming newsletters, please register and submit their project on our web site.
If you'd like to read our November newsletter, click here.
Help us keep the ripple going and use the 'forward' button below to share with your friends and family.
