Thank YOU for Making a Difference: The Power of a Handwritten Note!

11/09/14

"When you practice gratefulness, there is a sense of respect toward others."
                                                                             ~ Dalai Lama

Each November, the "Thank You for Making a Difference" peer-to-peer appreciation program offers employees the opportunity to send "thank-you" notes to colleagues across campus.  

Handwritten notes are a simple - yet powerful - form of communication that conveys a clear message:  "You are worth my time." We invite all Ithaca College employees to take a few minutes during the months of November and December to send a note of gratitude to those who have positively affected your work/life!

Appreciation packages are being delivered on a rolling basis, with final packages scheduled to be delivered via intra-campus mail this week.  Each package contains 2-4 blank "Thank You" cards and $7.00 coupons redeemable at the Ithaca College Bookstore and Mac's General Store in Phillips Hall.  The coupon redemption process began Monday, November 3, and will end Friday, December 12, 2014.  All coupons will expire at the end of this time period. This time-frame WILL NOT be extended.

Appreciation Checklist ~

• OPEN THE PACKAGE!
• WRITE your colleague(s) a warm note and fill out the coupon!
• RECEIVE a “THANK YOU” note from other colleagues across campus!
• REDEEM any $7.00 coupons you receive at MAC’s GENERAL STORE or the IC BOOKSTORE in Philips Hall by 12/12 ~ you can save up several cards and go on a shopping spree before the holidays!
• SMILE the rest of the day because YOU made a DIFFERENCE!

At Ithaca College, we are fortunate to be surrounded by people who are dedicated, talented, and committed to excellence. Your co-workers do a great job every day - so thank them... and Thank YOU for Making a Difference!
