Our commitment
We empower individuals in need by teaching positive and servant leadership principles. Our focus is on facilitating a unique formal process to foster meaningful connections and forge unlikely friendships, nurturing a loving community. Additionally, we are committed to constructing a new modern campus with inclusive facilities to provide comprehensive and humane support for people in need.
Ride The Wave Foundation (RTW), a non-profit organization, was established in 2023. We offer free business training to individuals who feel marginalized by society, seek assistance, and aspire to improve their lives.
We strive to bridge the gap between education and government programs, utilizing the skills of everyday individuals eager to teach and make a difference. With the surge of homelessness, RTW acknowledges that genuine power and transformation stem from personal connections and empathy from the inside out.
Here is a glimpse of some of the training we provide:
- The Power of Positivity
- Fueling Encouragement
- Finding Purpose
- How to Be a Go Giver
- Goal Setting
- One-on-One Mentorship
- And Much More!

RTW’s founder, Jeff Fisher, was profoundly influenced by the unlikely relationships he formed. These connections led to the creation of RTW.
1st Interaction:
While walking down South Street in Morristown, NJ, Jeff encountered Lorenzo, who was selling splash paintings on the sidewalk. Lorenzo invited Jeff to view his artwork, sparking an engaging conversation. Jeff was inspired by Lorenzo’s energy and determination despite the challenges he faced.
2nd Interaction:
During a café meeting with Lorenzo to discuss potential collaboration, Jeff met Marc Robinson. Jeff noticed the numerous pens on the table, and Marc proudly shared one of his drawings. Despite their different backgrounds and appearances, Jeff and Marc built trust and formed a valuable friendship, realizing they had more in common than they thought.
3rd Interaction:
4th Interaction:
Jeff’s last encounter was with Hal in a café. Despite Hal’s rudeness toward the staff, Jeff approached him with an open demeanor. To Jeff’s surprise, Hal responded positively, and they bonded over a shared interest in a book they admired. Their conversation shifted toward positivity and spirituality, creating a positive energy. Jeff discovered the importance of approaching others with genuine intentions to get to know them.
Some moments in everyday life have the power to transform us. Wave Maker by Jeff Fisher is a testament to the profound impact that chance encounters can have—if we’re willing to open our hearts. This captivating book follows one man’s experience paying a simple act of kindness forward and the ripple effects reverberating through his life. Through Eli’s story, readers are invited to consider the seven principles that can turn ordinary interactions into meaningful connections. But Wave Maker is more than a tale of human connection. It’s a call to see the world and ourselves in a new light – one filled with empathy, vulnerability, and the courage to make a difference, no matter how small the gesture. Prepare to be moved, inspired, and forever changed by the power of Wave Maker.

We are developing a free online training program that empowers homeless individuals who aspire to a better life with servant and positive leadership principles, inspiring them to create positive change. By developing essential leadership qualities, participants acquire the skills needed to navigate challenges, build a brighter future, and make meaningful contributions to their communities.
RTW acknowledges the difficulties homeless individuals face in receiving housing and resources. We discovered that receiving housing and then navigating multiple organizations for resources with minimal guidance hinders people’s stability, potentially leading to relapse or worsening mental health.
True reform involves providing homeless individuals committed to reform with a comprehensive, all-inclusive, non-religious, modern, and humane live-in campus backed by community support. We believe in change from within, driven by individuals embracing their capacity for love.
At RTW we believe that words matter, so “Wave” won’t be called a “Program”, but a “Collective” — The Wave Collective. Everyone, irrespective of age, race, sex, religion, or their past, is welcome. At RTW the pathway is to the person so that’s what we will focus on.
RTW’s endeavors, including our podcast, books, training, partnerships, and projects, align with our grand commitment. Stay tuned for updates!
Jeff Fisher, the founder of Ride The Wave, owns NCK Equipment (NCK), which adopted Ride The Wave as its guiding company culture. NCK was named after the founder Ray Maurone’s three daughters, reflecting Ray’s family values, relationship-building skills, and positive mentorship with Jeff. More than industry leaders, we’re propelled by deep-rooted values. RTW, our foundation, guides NCK’s innovation and community efforts. It fuels us to be much more than a process equipment company, enhancing our customer support and sparking internal innovation. See NCK’s website to see how we have tied in RTW, which is interwind with NCK’s culture. Visit the NCK Website.
