Ripples of Hope is City Year Seattle/King County’s annual benefit gala and one of the city’s premiere events. Held in downtown Seattle, this evening celebrates the power of young people to make a difference with a festive night of exceptional cuisine, inspirational speakers, and by honoring a community champion.
City Year Seattle/King County would like to thank our community for their support and generosity at Ripples of Hope 2008. The community’s support has made an incredible difference, and the board, staff and corps members at City Year all thank you for your generosity! More than 600 citizens, business and community leaders, and City Year Seattle/King County corps members joined together on this evening to champion the work and dedication of young people who believe they can change the world. We raised more than $414,286 for City Year at Ripples of Hope 2008– thank you so much for your support!
Each year we look forward to the Ripples of Hope benefit gala because it brings together our community - a community committed to making a difference. We hope you will join us for Ripples of Hope 2009!
