Our What You Can Do team is so grateful to our wonderful fans for joining us in the mission to change the world, one minute at a time, in 2013. From spreading kindness to fighting hunger, you've inspired us with your passion and ideas.

Below our team members share the things they are grateful for this holiday season:
