Join the Ripple Effect and Become a Monthly Donor
The Ripple effect is created by a special group of people who contribute each month to the work of the Ryan's Well Foundation. You know when you throw a stone in the water and start a ripple? It's pretty easy to throw a stone in a pond and it's even easier to see all the ripples when everyone pitches in. It's reliable, it happens every time. That's what monthly donors do - they start a ripple that continues to grow. Knowing that we can count on your support each month helps us create a ripple effect in the developing world.
Monthly donations are an easy and efficient way to make a difference. Once your payment method of credit card or direct bank payment is set up, you can simply watch your contributions at work.
No more papers to mail, minimizing our adminstrative costs and lessening the impact on the environment.
Each Monthly Donor will receive a membership certificate, welcome letter, a Ryan's Well bookmark and receive our newsletter by mail or by email twice per year.
Members contributing over $83 per month, $1000 annually, will also receive a copy of our book, Ryan and Jimmy and the Well in Africa That Brought Them Together by author Herb Shoveller, published by Kids Can Press.
You will receive one annual charitable tax receipt (applicable for Canadian resident members)
at the end of each year.
Join the ripple effect today and make a difference with your monthly donations!
