SAY THANKS, AUSTIN
SAY THANKS, AUSTIN IS AN ANNUAL EVENT WHICH PRESENTS THE AUSTIN AREA WITH A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO SAY “THANK YOU” TO A SELECT GROUP OF REMARKABLE INDIVIDUALS WHO CONTRIBUTE THEIR TIME AND TALENTS TOWARD EXEMPLARY ACTS OF GOOD.
How does it work?
Each year, RecognizeGood selects a group of Legend award recipients who become eligible to participate in the Say Thanks, Austin campaign. Over the course of January, the community is able to say Thank You to each participant by voting for one or all by means of a variety of voting methods including RecognizeGood.org, email, text, hand-written Thank You forms, and social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Once the Thank You votes have been tallied, the participant with the most votes receives a pay-it-forward donation of $10,000 to the nonprofit organization of their choice. Most importantly, our community focuses attention on those who truly deserve it, and are inspired to find ways to contribute themselves.
