Despite a global pandemic keeping us apart, despite Winter Storm Uri wreaking havoc on our backup plans, and despite countless other minor challenges along the way, RecognizeGood was incredibly proud to persevere and find a safe way to honor our most recent class of volunteer all-star Legends while we announced the results of our month-long Say Thanks, Austin gratitude campaign. From early teen to mid-80's, each of these honorees has made a unique - and Legendary - impact on those around them. Read their stories here. Check out our photo album from our day of driving a giant LED billboard truck around town, meeting each volunteer we honored with their supporters on their turf, and donating almost $20,000 along the way. Our Say Thanks, Austin campaign totaled over 140,000 acts of gratitude - clicks, tweets, messages, emails, texts and written ballots - and each one represented a member of our community simply saying 'thank you' to one of these incredible community servants. Thanks to everyone who took part and got in the habit of recognizing good! |
