Staff and faculty are invited to drop by to pick up a Thrive week schedule, and send a gratitude gram to a colleague who helps them Thrive! 

How it works:

1. Pick up a card from the kiosk to write a message of gratitude to send to a colleague. 

2. Purchase a gift certificate for the kiosk to include in the card.

3. Hand deliver the card to your colleague. Or, if you want to add an extra element of surprise to your gratitude gram, you can pay for a specific item at the kiosk, and the Thrive Gratitude Fairies will arrange for it to be delivered to your colleague at a time & place of your choice (Note: This will require you to know what you’re colleague likes to order and when a good time to deliver it would be. Delivery times are limited to Thursday January 25th and Friday January 26th.)

Can’t make it on Monday but still want to send a gratitude gram? The cards will be available at the kiosk all week. Note: If you want your gratitude gram to be delivered on Thursday/Friday, your card will need to be completed by the end of the day on Wednesday.

Research shows that giving thanks and expressing gratitude can help people sleep better, lower stress, and improve interpersonal relationships.

This event is for staff and faculty only.
