Thank you to everyone who entered to win an OAK backpack for Day 1 of Gratitude Week!
We asked for you to either tweet or email us a photo of something or someone you are thankful for. The responses we got were heartwarming and amazing. Since we loved your responses so much, we figured we would share them with the rest of you.

Here are some of our favorite images from #Day1:
?I?m thankful for my granddaughter Breanna, age 13, who went with me to volunteer in Ecuador. ?We spent two weeks with Global Volunteers working in a day care center. ?As the caretakers and children spoke little English, my granddaughter who has learned Spanish since kindergarten in a Spanish immersion school, worked as the translator for the adult volunteers.?
