Our mission continues
Our mission remains unchanged: to say “Thank You” to our Military and First Responder communities, and to honor their service by creating opportunities for all Americans to express gratitude.
As we transition to a community-powered organization, we’re excited to empower local leaders and volunteers across the nation to create meaningful expressions of gratitude in their own communities.
Together, we’re creating the future of gratitude—one community at a time.
