"Reflecting on Gratitude: Celebrating Thanksgiving and Supporting Loved Ones in Need"

With the celebration of Thanksgiving in November, many of us take a pause to reflect on all that we’re thankful for, and in that spirit, let me express how thankful I am to you for being such a valuable part of our business. The first Thanksgiving was held in 1621 in Plymouth, MA between the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag people. This feast lasted three days and was attended by 90 Native American Wampanoag people and 53 survivors of the Mayflower (Pilgrims). The holiday has been celebrated nationally on and off since 1789 with a proclamation by President George Washington, but only formally observed at the discretion of the sitting president until President Abraham Lincoln, in 1863, proclaimed a national day of “Thanksgiving and Praise.” On January 6, 1885, an act by Congress made Thanksgiving, and other federal holidays, a paid holiday for all federal workers throughout the United States. Thanksgiving is a particularly special holiday with its focus on family and gratitude, free from some of the commercialism that creeps into other holidays. We hope you get to enjoy your loved ones this year without getting too bogged down in preparations. And while you’re enjoying this time, give a thought to anyone you know who needs to move for one reason or another this month. If you’d like to extend a hand to help them through the anxiety of being unsettled at this time, we have a way you can help.

Honoring Labor Day: Celebrating Hard-Earned Rights and Opportunities for Change

We recently celebrated Labor Day, a day many observe with picnics, parties, and parades. It’s a time to step back from work and spend well-earned moments with friends and family. While we recognize this holiday as a reward for hard work, it also honors the generations of workers who fought for fairer labor conditions. The first Labor Day parade took place in New York City 142 years ago, and in 1894, the first Monday in September was officially declared a national holiday. This celebration was born from the struggles of events like the 1886 Haymarket Riot, where tens of thousands of laborers — bricklayers, jewelers, typographers, dress and cloak makers, and others — in Chicago protested against harsh working conditions. At the time, workers, including children, were often forced to work twelve or more hours a day, six days a week, in cramped, poorly ventilated spaces. Their demand for an eight-hour workday is a lasting legacy for future generations. That first parade ended with picnics, speeches, fireworks, and dancing — setting the stage for over a century of hard-earned celebrations. In the spirit of Labor Day and to celebrate the month of September, I’d like to offer you an opportunity that can help you make meaningful changes for people you know — friends, family, and others in your community.

Smiles are Contagious – Let's Spread Joy Together!

The Second Week of August is National Smile Week, so We Want to Give you Something to Smile About! First, some interesting facts about smiling to brighten your day. Did you know that the human face has 44 muscles that give you the ability to make more than 5,000 facial expressions? Further, smiling is actually good for your health. According to a recent study in Psychological Science, people who smile during stressful situations are significantly less stressed than those who aren’t smiling. So there just might be something to the old adage, “Grin and Bear it.” I’m sure you also know that smiles are contagious. When someone smiles at you, it’s instinctual to smile back. Try it—pay forward the body’s natural stress reducer by smiling at the next person you see. Most may not realize it's National Smile Week. This cheerful celebration encourages healthy habits and spreading joy. A little smiling can help make our world a better place, and we would all welcome that. We have something for you that will help you put a smile on the faces of your friends, family, and community.
