This month, we are sharing a story that is a powerful reminder of what people can accomplish when they come together with a shared purpose.

Inside the Charlotte Convention Center in North Carolina, 6,500 volunteers worked around the clock to build over 10,000 beds in just 24 hours for children who did not have one of their own. Lowe's employees rolled up their sleeves alongside thousands of others to support the charity Sleep in Heavenly Peace, an organization dedicated to ensuring no child sleeps on the floor.

The effort was extraordinary in scale. Two hundred miles of raw lumber were transformed into 10,027 finished beds. Work was divided across 16 lines, with hundreds of people moving in sync through cutting, sanding, assembling, and finishing. When the tools finally went quiet, thousands of beds were stacked and ready for delivery to families across 36 states through 110 Sleep in Heavenly Peace chapters.

As one medical director of sleep medicine noted, without consistent, high-quality sleep, children can fall behind in ways that affect both their health and their learning. What these volunteers gave was more than just a bed. It was a foundation for something better. This story is a beautiful reminder that when people show up for one another, even the biggest goals become possible.

Twenty-five years ago, the world changed, and the courage, resilience, and unity that followed reminded us of what we are capable of in our darkest moments.

On Patriot Day, we pause to honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to pay tribute to the first responders, volunteers, and everyday individuals who showed extraordinary strength when it mattered most.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.

There is something about September that naturally signals a fresh start. As summer winds down and routines fall back into place, it’s the perfect time to reset, refocus, and recommit to feeling our best.

And for many of us, that includes getting back into an exercise routine. But this is where people tend to fall into two very different camps: morning or afternoon workouts.

🌅 Vote morning workout
🌙 Vote evening workout

Both have loyal fans and get the job done, but we want to know which one works best for you.

Drop your vote in the comments and let us know what team you’re on. We are excited to see which side wins this month!

We wish each of you a wonderful Labor Day! During this annual celebration of hard work, may you enjoy a well-deserved, restful break.

Please note that our office will be closed on Monday, September 7th, in observance of the holiday, and will reopen on Tuesday, September 8th.

As we settle into September and the rhythms of a new season, it is a natural time to step back and ask a bigger question: What are we actually building toward?

For many business owners, the first answer that comes to mind is success. But Albert Einstein's perspective challenges us to go a little deeper. Success, he suggests, is not the goal itself. It tends to follow when we focus on something more meaningful: the value we create for others.

As you move through this month, we would love to hear from you: In your business or your work, what is one way you are focused on creating real value for the people you serve? Share it in the comments. We would love to hear your perspective!

September is home to some truly remarkable moments in history. From breakthroughs in medicine to the furthest reaches of space, these are the kinds of milestones that remind us of what becomes possible when human ingenuity, courage, and determination come together.

Here are three we are celebrating this month:

🫀 September 2, 1952 - At the University of Minnesota, the University of Minnesota surgical team (Drs. F. John Lewis, C. Walton Lillehei, Mansur Taufic, and Richard Varco) performed the first successful open-heart surgery using a technique called hypothermia, often called “code chill” or “code cool,” to temporarily stop the heart's blood flow.

🚀 September 5, 1977 - NASA launched the Voyager 1 spacecraft, which has since become the most distant human-made object ever to travel through space. Onboard is the Golden Record, a carefully assembled message from Earth intended for any extraterrestrial life that may find it.

🏗️ September 30, 1935 - In the middle of the Great Depression, construction on the Hoover Dam commenced, a monumental feat of engineering that was finished two years ahead of schedule.
These moments continue to inspire us to think bigger, reach further, and never underestimate what is possible.
