The Ripples of Kindness program at Gettysburg College is designed to cultivate a culture of appreciation and support among our employees. This initiative encourages faculty and staff to recognize and celebrate one another for acts of kindness, dedication, and exceptional teamwork. Whether it’s going the extra mile to help a colleague, showing thoughtful consideration, or demonstrating outstanding service, each “ripple” represents a meaningful acknowledgment of the positive impact we can have on one another.
At the heart of this program is the belief that one small act of kindness can create a cascading effect throughout our campus community. When employees share a ripple, they not only uplift an individual but also inspire others to engage in similar acts of kindness. This interconnectedness strengthens our community and enhances our collaborative spirit, making Gettysburg College an even more supportive and vibrant workplace.
