Thanksgiving is an important holiday for SpendMend – we know we have so much to be thankful for. We are thankful for our employees; our employees’ families; our partners; our clients; and for the healthcare professionals that work at the hospitals we call clients.
In recognition of this year’s holiday, we put together some special quotes about Thanksgiving and Appreciation for everyone to enjoy. As you, your family, and loved ones settle in for some turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes, please use these wise words to kick off some stirring dinner table conversation.
