Daryn Kagan Profiles Scott Truitt and The Gratitude Campaign

Scott Truitt Tells DarynKagan.com About Showing Gratitude With a Simple Gesture to U.S. Service Men and Women Through The Gratitude Campaign

Daryn Kagan, former CNN anchor and creator and host of DarynKagan.com , presents  an interview with Scott Truitt, founder of GrattitudeCampaign.org, which hosts one of the most popular videos on the Internet today, The Gratitude Campaign.  The webcast can be viewed in its entirety at http://www.DarynKagan.com 

Truitt tells Kagan "I just thought it would be really nice if civilians had something similar to a military salute — if we had some means of quickly and easily communicating our gratitude to those who serve for us." Not as a political statement, but as a gesture to say, "thank you" to people who defend freedoms in the U.S.  After doing some research, Truitt found an 18th century “thank you from the bottom of my heart" hand sign, and began to use it when seeing service men and women in public. The Gratitude Campaign video soon followed, as did its popularity on the Internet. GratitudeCampaign.org now receives more than 100,000 hits a day.
