Ripples Gala

“The power for creating a better future is contained in the present moment: You create a good future by creating a good present.” 

– Eckhart Tolle 

Ripples is the signature gala event and primary fundraiser for Deschutes Children’s Foundation, allowing DCF to carry out the mission to provide the space and support where nonprofits succeed at helping children and families. We envision a community where all children and families have the resources they need to thrive. We operate four community campuses where nonprofits work together to help children and families. At Ripples, our collective generosity grows into a powerful wave of support for families and children who need it most!
