A lot of people suffer in silence all year long and every bit of help they can get matters. Giving has always been part of what we do at Money Ripples and as a Rippler, we want you to be able to serve others even when it isn’t the holiday season too.  In this episode, I am telling you the stories of how I was lifted up by people around me when I needed it the most and how you can serve others too, so you can be that light that they need in their darkest days.  Happy Holidays, Ripplers! Let’s continue to serve and help people, even when it’s not Christmas!
