to help us be able to bring the most accessible, engaging, interactive, educational, and inspiring grateful living programs and practices to an ever-more diverse, changing, and "wanting" world.

On behalf of all of us: Thank YOU from the bottom of our hearts.

This campaign has been rooted deeply in community, commitment, and hope. And it has fostered these in turn. It has been an exercise in faith and tenacity, and we thank you for staying connected with us to the very end. We received more gifts the day AFTER reaching our goal than the day that we met it. See for yourself the generosity that defines our community!

After receiving her thank you note yesterday, Elena wrote:

"May your work  be blessed and  may gratefulness become the source of living a meaningful life for more and more people around the world. I´m from Slovakia, but ready to join efforts whenever I would be able to. Everyday The Word For the Day is like a glass of fresh water, reminding me of the most important things in life. So, thank YOU!"

We will use every penny of support from this campaign to serve you, and millions of others around the world, with an upgraded Gratefulness.org for inspirational readings, Word for the Day, candles and E-cards that you can rely on. But we are also really excited about the new features and programs we are introducing that will allow you to interact with people around the world every day, keep track of daily reflections in a journal, share stories and profiles, take courses and read blogs from leaders from all walks of life, and have a personal space for daily practice that will truly offer you nourishment.

Please look for special invitations that will come to your Email Inbox from Gratefulness.org in the months ahead, to participate in pilot programs and gatherings especially for this community. Also, please do stay in touch. You have moved us to the core with your care, and we offer our care in return. On behalf of the Board and staff of A Network for Grateful Living, with great, full and grateful hearts, we are humbly yours -

A Network for Grateful Living is a global non-profit (EIN# 23-7022057) offering online and off-line programs and practices to inspire grateful living as a means of personal and societal transformation. Gratefulness.org is our website which was started by Brother David Steindl-Rast and friends over a decade ago.
