“There is no force more powerful than a woman determined to rise.” – Dorothy Dandridge  

In honor of International Women’s Day, consider showing your support of girls and women in one or all of these special ways!

1. Show your support.

• Throw an online fundraiser annually on your birthday for an organization that lifts up women.
• Hold a diaper or formula drive in your office and donate to a worthy non-profit.
• Donate to a food bank near you.

2. Help a mom in need.

• As it is estimated that 76% of educational roles in the United States are women, consider finding ways to help fund a classroom in need of supplies. 
• Donate gently used professional clothing to a clothing closet in your city to help jumpstart someone else’s career.
• Find an organization that provides clean water to women in need worldwide.

3. Get moving! Join a walk for a cause or look for unique ways to help.

• Although many walks have gone virtual over the last year, you can still look for ways to get out and join a movement.

10 Ways to Practice Humility in 2021

1. Practice mindfulness and focus on the present. How can you be present for yourself, your family and your friends?
2. Be of service to others without worrying about the credit. What good acts can you do that no one will know about?
3. Root for everyone. Believe that most people are trying their best and do what you can to cheer them on.
4. Ask for help when you need it, and have the humility to ask for it when you realize you need it, instead of when you’re already in hot water.

5. Spend time listening to others and seek feedback on a regular basis.
6. Practice living without extremes, seek moderation in most things that you do for a balanced perspective.
7. When you’re wrong, admit it, and ask for forgiveness as needed.
8. Seek ways to serve others in your community.
9. Make a list of things you are grateful for. Who will you thank today?
10. Practice vulnerability. Work on being vulnerable with others you can trust, which opens the doors to reciprocal vulnerability.

Unless you’re an employee, franchise owner, or affiliated with Scooter’s Coffee in some way, chances are you aren’t familiar with our company’s Core Values. Founded by Don and Linda Eckles in 1998, Scooter’s strives to build our business on a foundation of honesty and trust. Let’s take a walk through the Core Values that make our company great.

Integrity

We uphold the highest moral and ethical principles. Everything we do is built on a foundation of honesty and trust.

Love

We approach one another with kindness, respect and grace. We actively listen and show empathy with a caring, understanding heart.

Humility

We seek to build up others, not ourselves. We acknowledge and celebrate each other’s accomplishments because we know we can’t truly succeed on our own.

Courage

We embrace challenges and encourage new ideas. We have the curiosity to ask questions, to continue learning and to explore new possibilities.

As we begin a new year, we’re taking time to reflect on our habits, setting intentions, and creating goals for ourselves to better our lives. Here are 10 tips to start your day in a positive way!

1. Set yourself up for success by getting a good night’s sleep! Create a bedtime routine to ensure a restful sleep. We suggest turning off phone notifications an hour or more before bedtime and limiting screen use.

2. Spend the first 10 minutes of your day in bed. If you’re able, allow yourself a few minutes to wake up slowly and think about goals for the day instead of springing right up and at ‘em.

3. Do you have a favorite mug? Brighten your morning with a fun mug that’s the perfect size for the amount of coffee or tea for you and fits comfortably in your hand. It might sound silly, but it makes a difference!

4. Take a breath and make a plan. Take 5-10 minutes at the start of your day to determine what it will look like. Making a plan helps set intentions and will leave you feeling accomplished

When entering a new year, we look for any reason to feel inspired. We hope these quotes leave you with a fresh perspective to begin anew, in whatever way they feel meaningful to you.

“We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day.” ― Edith Lovejoy Pierce

“We spend January 1st walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...not looking for flaws, but for potential.” ― Ellen Goodman

In the winter months leading up to the holiday season, one of our favorite things to do is to load up the car, roll through Scooter’s for everyone’s favorite hot drinks, and drive around looking at holiday lights.

Since everything is a little different this year, we thought it would be fun to do something similar for Halloween too! Enter the Scooter’s Spooky Halloween Scavenger Hunt. This weekend or next, load up your family in the car, or take a walk around your neighborhood and see if you can spot all of the items on our list! Some of them will be easy (you can’t take a step without tripping over a pumpkin this time of year), and others a little more difficult, but that’s the fun of it!

The scavenger hunt image above comes in an 8.5” x 11” (standard letter size) printable version you can download by clicking here. It can be printed on any printer, so be sure you print one out for everyone! We recommend printing on cardstock or bringing something like a clipboard to write on if you’ll
