The event, Thankful For, gave our customers a chance to tell us what they\u2019re thankful for; while being able to help others in need at the same time. We donated $1 for each response to the American Red Cross. It was an exciting opportunity for us to be able to connect with our customers, as well as contribute to a very beneficial organization. Our staff participated in the event as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some of the comments from our staff:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Harry: &#8220;I am so thankful for my wonderful wife and daughter, the hilarious friends I get to work with, and for jQuery.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Michael: &#8220;I am thankful first for having a God that loves and forgives us and sends comfort when we need it most. I am thankful for my family. I am thankful that I have been given opportunities to do what I am doing and to live the life I have. I know that my life could be worse than it is, but between God and my family I have been able to keep going, and I am thankful for their support.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whitney: &#8220;I am thankful for all of the amazing people in my life, kitties, books and being able to find happiness with another person, my fiance!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alison: &#8220;I&#8217;m thankful for my fiance, our new home, Daisy, Dot and my family and friends. I couldn&#8217;t be happier or more thankful.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I truly enjoyed reading all the wonderful comments from our customers (and employees!).
