“I am really enjoying GiveThx because I get to feel more connected with other students in my grade and it gives me a better opportunity to give gratitude to others during social distancing."

"During this time of uncertainty and upheaval GiveThx has allowed staff and students to continue to have an authentic connection with each other that supports a sense of community, personal relationships, and safety.”

“I have been moved by the depth in the notes of gratitude that have been exchanged and the bond that GiveThx has helped build amongst my students. It has acted as a line of beautiful communication now that we are forced to be sheltered in place.”

"I'd say it is a turnkey way of developing positive culture in a class/school.  It is also an effective method of identifying students who need better peer relationships."

"GiveThx has made school feel more comfortable. Having time to acknowledge classmates and receive appreciations makes me feel more motivated."

“This has been a godsend during at-home learning. It's really helped my advisory group stay bonded, and it's increased the 'warm fuzzy' feelings they appear to have with each other online.”

"Receiving Thx notes from my classmates made me feel like I was welcomed in my community and it made me feel happy."
