Reviews

"After giving my teachers the GivaGeta Educational Kindness Leadership Tool Kit as a tool to improve school culture and climate, I received more thank you's this year than any other year in my history as Superintendent."
~ Gary Mala, Superintendent of Schools, CT Regional School District 17, 11/2009

"I like how I can use this in my classroom in line with the already busy curriculum and intertwine it. I don't need to set time away for the games."
~ A School Teacher 

"The GivaGeta cards and program are perfect for the in school team building. We love it when the children are drawn to the cards and utilize them to recognize how their feelings are affecting others and how other people's feelings are affecting them. We recommend these cards to anyone that wants to make a positive impact in children's lives."
~ "H" Rothenberg, Camp Director & School Trainer

“I bought one of your Leadership Toolkits and I used a lot of your activities with my staff for staff training and then my leadership team used it for training our counselors in training. It was great and I've also used it with my Sunday school class. [What were some of the fun and engaging simple positive things that people took away and the outcomes?] Huge energy, getting to know each other, and just really thinking about why we were working with kids and what we wanted to teach the kids throughout the summer. It really helped to kind of get the staff thinking about what was the bigger purpose of why they were there. Definitely making our world a better place.”
~ Heidi T., Camp Director
