What is Elev8 Ripple?
Why 'Ripple'?
Elev8 Ripple is a wave of kindness and generosity that flows out of Elev8 Worship Events into real communities. It’s about turning moments of worship into practical acts of love — from building water wells in Durban to providing food, mentorship, and hope to families in need. Every act makes a ripple, and those ripples spread, touching lives far beyond what we see. It starts with one drop. It starts with you.
Our Vision:
Imagine a city where people help one another — not for attention, not for reward, but simply to lift someone else up.
That’s the heart behind Elev8 Ripple. On June 28th, 2025, during Elev8 Durban, we’ll invite everyone in the room to become one of the First 1,000 Ripple Starters. This is where the ripple begins — right there in worship, right there in South Africa.
Each person will commit to one simple act of kindness for someone in their city, expecting nothing in return. Then, they’ll challenge 3 others to do the same. And from there, the kindness spreads… like ripples on water.
