Thanksgiving is more than just a holiday—it’s a time to reflect on all the connections that make a community thrive. For property managers, it’s the perfect moment to show appreciation for everyone who plays a part in making your community a success: from residents and board members to staff and vendors. With a little creativity (and the help of ONR), you can spread gratitude and strengthen bonds throughout your community while embracing the holiday spirit.
1. A Festive Message With Heart
Nothing says “we care” like a warm, personalized message to your residents. Skip the usual reminders and send out a heartfelt Thanksgiving e-blast using ONR’s messaging tools. Add a fun touch with a Thanksgiving meme or a quirky note of thanks—it’s simple, thoughtful, and will make everyone smile.
2. Plan a Pop-Up “Thank You” Treat Table
Use ONR to organize a surprise Thanksgiving treat station in the lobby or clubhouse. Think pumpkin spice coffee, cookies, or even mini pies. A little sugar and a lot of gratitude will go a long way toward making residents feel appreciated this holiday season.
3. Give Thanks Publicly
Use your community bulletin or ONR’s announcement feature to spotlight the amazing residents who make your job worthwhile. Whether it’s a long-time board member or someone who always brings positive energy to events, letting them know they’re appreciated will brighten their day.
4. Create a Community Gratitude Wall
This is an easy, feel-good project! Set up a digital “Gratitude Wall” using ONR where residents can share what they’re thankful for. It’s a great way to foster connection and positivity while reminding everyone why your community is such a special place.
5. Host a Giving-Back Drive
Thanksgiving is a time to give back. Use ONR to rally your community for a food or coat drive. Residents can RSVP, donate, and track progress—all from one platform. Giving back feels good and reinforces the value of being part of a connected, caring community.
