Every October, our team looks forward to our annual Spooktacular festivities! From costume contests to Bingo, our frightfully fun activities did not disappoint. Associates from our Utah, Texas, North Carolina, and remote locations participated, and let's just say with all the spooky and creative costumes we saw, the bar for 2023 has been raised! Our Draper campus even hosted a Trunk or Treat, complete with a donut food trunk and photo booth, for our associates and their adorable little monsters. 😊 We're already looking forward to next year's event, and suspect our associates feel the same! #1800contacts #lifeat1800contacts #spooktacular #holidayseason #companyevents
We had the best time celebrating with our associates who hit their 10-, 15-, and even 20-year work anniversaries. Talk about an impressive milestone! We gathered at our Draper campus and enjoyed a yummy spread (buffet style), which included roasted organic chicken breasts, handmade casarecce, sautéed vegetables, and German chocolate cake – all provided by our talented 20/20 Grille team. In addition to the great food and even better conversation, our honorees received a custom recognition book, documenting their time at 1-800 Contacts. Shout-out to these incredible individuals. Here's to many more awesome years together! #1800contacts #lifeat1800contacts #workiversary #drapercampus #recognition

We had so much fun last week at our annual Utah Pickleball Tournament!

Shout-out to our winners, Spencer and Allan (1st place), Stephen and Adrian (2nd place), and Tim and James (3rd place). 👏 Well done! #1800contacts #lifeat1800contacts #pickleballtournament #drapercampus #wellness #events
We had an incredible time at Bridle Up Hope's 2022 Gala last week. Those in attendance enjoyed amazing music and food, and had the opportunity to hear some truly powerful stories. We continue to be inspired by the work that Bridle Up Hope does, empowering women and girls to realize their own potential, and are honored to be listed among their sponsors. Tracie Wilson, Benefits Coordinator at 1-800 Contacts, shared: "I am so excited 1-800 Contacts is working with Bridle Up Hope. With social media and the world in general giving us these impossible expectations to live up to, it is no wonder that there is a mental health problem. I love that the program is based on giving girls and women a way to change their lives through working with horses. By also covering The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, they are teaching them that they are enough and that there is hope." We look forward to continuing to partner with this life-changing organization and invite you to check out their website to learn more. #1800contacts #bridleuphope #contactsgivesback
We were honored to be a sponsor of last month’s Utah Asian Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament. In addition to hosting a table at this event, we were able to give away tickets to eight lucky associates. Our lottery winners had a blast, and we loved being able to send them to this highly anticipated outing. Creating a culture of belonging continues to be a top focus at 1-800 Contacts. We truly believe we are Better together, as an organization and as a community. 💛 To learn more about UACC, we invite you to check out their website, http://utahasiancc.org/, to learn about the important work they are doing to foster Asian business and professionals within the state of Utah as well as internationally. #1800contacts #lifeat1800contacts #bettertogether #utahasianchamberofcommerce #golftournament
We LOVED celebrating with our amazing associates at our recent 5-year recognition event. Yummy food, music, glittery drinks (inspired by our company values and mascot, Seemore) mingling with friends, surprise swag bags – does it get any better than that? Congrats to these incredible individuals on their milestone! We are so grateful for everything they do for our customers and the business, and for making 1-800 Contacts (and its sister companies) such an awesome place to work. Here’s to many more wonderful years together! #1800contacts #lifeat1800contacts #workiversary #recognitionevent #celebration #milestone
Our campuses were flooded with yellow attire today in support of Suicide Prevention Month. Throughout September, we've shared mental health resources, hosted events, and sponsored trainings to better equip our associates to support individuals in need. Mental health is a core focus at 1-800, and we love how our Big-hearted associates constantly watch out for and support one another. Although the official month of recognition is coming to an end, advocating for mental health is a daily priority. Not only for others, but for yourself as well. There are free, life-saving resources available, such as the national suicide prevention lifeline, which can be reached by dialing 988. We can do this, and we'll do it together. #1800contacts #suicidepreventionmonth #wearyellowday #bighearted #mentalhealth
