From Spare Change to Shared Smiles
How a few cents can create meaningful moments for those in need.

When Cents Become Stories
Spare change feels forgettable—until it funds a birthday cake for a shelter resident or sketchbooks for kids in a hospital. That is the journey of a few cents through RippleDeeds.
The Round‑Up Path
- Your card is charged the difference to the next dollar.
- Those cents are pooled with others—simple, steady, collective.
- Local partners convert the funds into concrete items and experiences.
“We didn’t just deliver meals. We learned names, heard stories, and came back the next week.” — Volunteer
A Day We Won’t Forget
At a recent MealMates event, a donor’s round‑ups covered the last missing ingredients for a hot dinner. The room went quiet for a moment when someone said, “I didn’t think anyone saw me.” That sentence is the reason we do this.
Small money makes big memory. The math is simple. The feeling isn’t.
How You Can Start
- Turn on round‑ups in the RippleDeeds app.
- Pick a cause that makes you smile.
- Check your impact feed and share a photo of what you helped make happen.
Spare change is power we forget we have. Let’s remember together.
