Businesses
 

Every business has great potential to play a key role in increasing their bottom line by encouraging marriage and healthy relationship education in the workplace and on employee's free time.

Happy Employees are Productive Employees...

When employee's are not in productive, thriving, healthy relationships, it takes up a lot of their "brain space." Enthusiasm for things that are work-related can take a nosedive. The result? Loss of productivity. That's why It is in the best interest of every employer to encourage healthy relationships. Here's a few suggestions:

* Have a lunch n' learn in your break room to introduce the idea of healthy relationship education.

* Provide on-site workshops, including evening classes where spouses can also attend.

* Provide a marriage and healthy relationship "check-up" workshop certificate to your employees as part of your benefits package. 

* Include thinkmarriage.org as an option for charitable-match dollars offered by your company.

* Invest in your community by donating to the work of thinkmarriage.org as a company.

* Have a thinkmarriage.org fundraiser! Examples:

Let every employee who donates $5 have a special privilege like wearing jeans for a day.

Make a favorite vending machine in the break room "free" for certain hours and add up what would have been spent, and donate it to thinkmarriage.org

Include thinkmarriage.org as part of your charitable "drives" and "giving campaigns."
