Though Valentine’s Day is the day seemingly reserved to remind someone special how much you care about her or him (not to mention the day that keeps the florists afloat!), leave it to Y associates to find any and every excuse to remind their colleagues how much they are valued and appreciated!
Here is just a snippet of the many Y associate "Shout Outs" shared on our workplace Facebook page:

#lovemyYteam
As of 10:00 am this morning we are closing in on the open spaces and our “words of affirmation” board is almost filled! We continue to show hearts of gratitude for our associates!
Let me add my voice to the chorus thanking the 3,100 (give or take) people who come to work every day to ensure that the Y makes a tremendous impact on the over 300,000 people across the communities we serve. No matter what role you play, no matter what your title, and no matter how many hours a week you put on that Y shirt or name tag, you are contributing to the essential well-being of thousands of children, families and adults every day. Your work is important and highly valued by those you serve, by the community as a whole and by me.
I am honored to call you colleagues!
THANK YOU.
All the best,
John
