Did you know that just 25% of people give to charity regularly? The Ripples team believe they can change this by building innovative and engaging digital giving experiences fit for 2022. The startup aims to help people feel more connected to things that really matter by inspiring small, regular acts of generosity.
After closing their pre-seed round, led by TwinklHive, the team is growing and looking to scale their impact in 2022. Ripples currently supports over 80 charities and, through partnerships, will be adding hundreds more UK charities in the coming months.
