It's official 2020 is coming to a screeching halt, and let's face it - you're probably like the millions of Americans stressing out by trying to redefine holiday traditions, meaningful celebrations, and the small encounters of appreciation that define your life like:
Customer Service Appreciation Week (10/2 - 10/5)
National Boss Day (10/16)
Halloween (10/31)
Use Your Common Sense Day (11/4)
Veterans Day (11/11)
World Kindness Day (11/13)
National Philanthropy Day (11/15)
Thanksgiving (11/26)
Black Friday (11/27)
Cyber Monday (11/30)
Giving Tuesday (12/1)
Christmas (12/25)
The list goes on & on, but..... did you know that some of the celebrations listed above are
ALSO considered some of the most celebrated work events between employers and
employees?
Celebrations like "Nation Boss Day" brings employees together to celebrate their employer, "Use Your Common Sense Day" is a fun day of laugh out loud gifts & tools to make your life simpler for your tough role as the expert you are, and "World Kindness Day" brings all people together from different departments together to show appreciation, support and gratitude among all groups.
With social distancing, and partial office openings, it's still uncertain if people can physically get together in an empty meeting room to hand out slices or cake or bond over a bowl of chili....We know you're really missing those moments! With 2020 disrupting our corporate celebration life...now is the best time to reevaluate your gift giving talents! Long gone are the days we can simply order a taco buffet for the team to show them just how much we appreciate them, when in fact most of the teams work from home...or last minute runs to Target to get a trendy (yet cheesy) mug with a matching popsocket (that no one will actually use).....
So you're probably thinking...
What are some classy, considerate, useful gifts I can purchase that won't break the bank?
Read on...
Gift Idea #1: The Gift of Giving
Select a local area non-profit and make a donation on behalf of your co-worker!
Most non-profits have a Holiday Campaign, Celebration Campaign, or offer Gift Cards that support local small businesses while also supporting the non-profit. These awesome local organizations that spread good around the community would love your help and they will send a personalized Thank You Note of generosity to verify the gift was received. If you're in the Dallas - Ft. Worth Area, here are some of our favorite non-profits:
Gift Idea #2: A Local Business Gift Card
Find a local restaurant, shop or business that's local! Purchase the gift card and don't forget to also purchase something for yourself! It's always great to #SupportLocal! Some local businesses (like us), partner with local non-profits so you can rest assured your purchase is truly supporting local!
Gift Idea #3: A Subscription to Healthy Snacks
Online snack stations like SnackNation offer a variety of healthy and yummy snacks straight to the home! Who doesn't love snacking?
