Grateful Living
Our Mission Statement
We empower people to live meaningful lives through the transformative practice of grateful living.
Welcome to grateful.org where for more than 25 years we have led the movement for a more grateful world. People come to us when gratitude isn’t enough. That’s because we go deeper. Grateful Living supports your daily life during challenging and joyful times with programs, resources, and skills for being more fully alive. We have a revolutionary spirit like our founder, the internationally beloved “Grandfather of Gratitude,” Br. David Steindl-Rast. As a diverse community, we are seekers of a meaningful life. Wherever you are in your lived experience, you are welcome here. Each step is part of the journey. Let’s go together.
