You Matter Moment of the Week
“I work for a university, and on campus we have many students who come from broken homes. They come to school with little or no support.
For our basketball home games, I always made goodies for the players on both the women’s and men’s teams. I always include a You Matter card with a little personal note on the back.
Also, for finals week, I bought candy bars and attached a YOU MATTER card to each candy bar with a ribbon. On the back of the YOU MATTER cards I wrote, ” Good luck with finals!” I will be handing out the candy bars tomorrow in our Memorial Union. I know that it is a small gesture, but to many of theses students, it will let them know that someone is thinking of them and that they do matter.”
