Thank-you gifts for the school staff who keep everything running
Send a gift they can spend on lunch, coffee, or a sweet treat. No fees. Never expires.
Thank the Unsung Heroes of the School Day
Behind every great school is a team of people who rarely get the spotlight. Bus drivers get kids there safely, front office staff juggle a hundred requests, custodians keep classrooms clean, and cafeteria workers make sure no one goes hungry. Gratitude Month is the perfect time to recognize their hard work. A small gift lets them know they matter to your family. With On Me, you choose a category they'll enjoy, add a note from your student, and they pick exactly what they want. It's a thank-you that reaches beyond the classroom.
School staff often work long days with little recognition, so a coffee or lunch on you can make their week. On Me gifts arrive by text, email, or a shareable link, and the link fits perfectly in a handwritten card. They never expire, so staff can use them whenever it suits them. And there are no fees, so every dollar counts.

Gifts for school heroes
Lunch on You for the School Team
School staff often grab lunch in a rush between bells. A Lunch On Me card lets them enjoy a fresh bowl or sandwich from spots like CAVA, Piada, and Green District Salads. It's a practical gift that shows real appreciation. It's perfect for bus drivers, librarians, school nurses, and front office staff. Add a note from your child thanking them. It'll make their day.
Testimonials
Loved by people everywhere
“Fantastic option for thoughtful gifts without the pressure of locking someone into something that they feel obligated to keep/use even if they don't like it.”
Grant King
“Works great to send a little pick me up to college kids when you never quite know how they will spend it, but know what things they like. Has been seamless. Thanks!”
Chris Lagerbloom
“On Me is my lifesaver when it comes to gifting friends and families — so many places and types of cards to choose from.”
Alaweyah Habhab
“Whether family gifting or corporate gifting, your people will love you for sending this gift.”
Gretchen
“Great concept and so easy to gift! Also has a great list of vendors available.”
Amelia Palmer
“I just think this was the best idea anyone has had in forever. I've been giving gift cards for Christmas for years & it's always a struggle to get the right one for everybody. On Me solved my dilemma & I can order from them every year. And everyone is happy, especially me!”
Carolyn Nickolauson
“I love it! I've always wanted to gift people I love, but I haven't been able to hit the sweet spot of finding "exactly what would spark joy". As soon as I learnt about it, I tried it for my partner and my sister.”
Ranganath Narayan
“I love this, adding quick video messages makes a huge difference. It's a gift card I know my friends will actually use!”
Katyanna Quach
“As a senior retiree, my thumbs don't go at Mach 1, and I don't always find apps easy to use. But I found this one very intuitive. Choosing a category like hiking makes me feel like I at least put a little effort into knowing what types of gift the recipient would want.”

“As someone who lives out of state from friends and family, On Me has been a great tool for making sure I don't miss the opportunity to make my loved ones feel special for birthdays and other celebrations. Love this service!”
