One Million Thank-You Notes. Countless Lives Touched.
A Million Thank-You Notes. A Whole Lotta Happy.
We're on a mission to send one million handwritten thank-you notes.
Because somebody out there deserves to know they matter. And because the world could use a little more good stuff.
The Big Ol' Gratitude Counter
26 of 1,000,000 thank-you notes reported sent
Next stop: 100 notes
Counted on the honor system, as reported by our community. How we count
How it works
Three Steps. Zero Homework.
Step 1
Think of Somebody
Someone who made your life better.
A teacher. A friend. A coworker. A parent. A complete stranger.
Somebody who deserves to know they matter.
Step 2
Write Them a Note
Grab a thank-you card, a piece of stationery, or even a sheet of notebook paper.
Write something genuine. It doesn't have to be fancy. It just has to be real.
Step 3
Send It and Count It
Mail it or hand-deliver it.
Then come back here and record your note. Watch our collective progress toward one million.
Make Your Gratitude Count
Sent one? Got one? Tell us. It takes about ten seconds.
No membership. No secret handshake. Just gratitude.
The Good Stuff
What Happens When You Say Thanks
The teacher who hears from a student twenty years later. The parent thanked by a grown-up kid. The coworker who never expected it. Real stories, shared by real people.

Meet the Guy Who Started This Whole Thing
Hey, I'm Jon. Some folks call me The Gratitude Dude.
I believe people should leave an encounter feeling better than they did before it. And I figure a million handwritten thank-you notes is a pretty good place to start.
I'm a speaker, an encourager, and a firm believer that laughter and gratitude can change lives. Thanks a Million is my way of inviting everybody to get in on the fun.
