Showing appreciation shouldn’t be complicated - it should be joyful and impactful. That’s why Snappy, the go-to corporate gifting platform, is teaming up with Go Icon, the trusted employee recognition app for senior living communities. Together, we’re making it easier than ever to celebrate the incredible teams who make senior living feel like home.

With this partnership, Go Icon users can seamlessly send Snappy’s thoughtfully curated gifts, turning everyday appreciation into something truly special.

Together, Go Icon and Snappy:

  • Simplify Gifting: Seamlessly recognize team achievements with a wide range of gifts tailored to their preferences. 
  • Boost Engagement: Transform appreciation into memorable moments with personalized, meaningful gifts. 
  • Strengthen Connections: Ensure every employee feels valued, from care staff to administrative teams.

Senior living employees play a vital role in creating caring, supportive environments for residents. With high turnover rates in the industry, meaningful recognition is more than just a nice gesture—it’s a powerful tool for improving retention and keeping dedicated employees engaged. Snappy’s 2025 Workforce study found that employees who feel recognized at work are 20x more engaged and 31% less likely to leave their roles.

“By incorporating Snappy into Go Icon’s platform, leaders can now celebrate these everyday heroes with gifts that speak volumes of gratitude,” said Jake Shinder, Senior Director Business Development at Snappy. “This partnership ensures recognition is not only seamless but also heartfelt and impactful.”

“Go Icon is thrilled to partner with Snappy, a company that shares our passion for meaningful, personal recognition,” said Ryan Galea, CEO, Go Icon. “By integrating their gifting platform into our Employee Recognition app, we’re empowering senior living organizations to express gratitude in deeper, more impactful ways – strengthening bonds and celebrating the incredible work their teams do every day.”
