Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
Willing is not enough; we must do.
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, submitted by Mike M., Portland, Oregon

True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic.
It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost,
but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.
-Arthur Ashe, submitted by Karen F., New Milford, Connecticut

A huge THANK YOU to the people who responded to our challenge of
supporting The Ripples Project through a purchase from our online
store. We raised over $1,000 that will help us do some REALLY cool
stuff in the new year!

We need a few more "shopping heroes" to visit our online store and
consider making a small purchase that will allow us to maintain our
FREE weekly splash of inspiration and add a few goodies for next
year. Peek here: http://www.TheRipplesProject.org/store/browse.cfm

Peace,
Paul
