Here are some of the occasions to inspire your employee recognition this July.
Top occasions to celebrate and reward your employees:
- World Chocolate Day

- International Chess Day
- International Day of Friendship
World Chocolate Day – July 7
Chocolate very well might be the universal language of happiness, and what better way to say “thank you” or “well done” than with a treat that delights everyone? World Chocolate Day is your chance to add a little fun and indulgence to your team’s day.
How to Celebrate:
Send a digital gift with a message like, “Enjoy a little something sweet!” Pair an eGift Card with their local chocolate outlets (Patchi, Saadeddine Pastry), food delivery (Talabat) or dessert brands and let your team choose their favorite treat.
World PR Day – July 16
Your PR and communications team plays a critical role in shaping your company’s image and telling your story. On World PR Day, take a moment to thank the people who connect, communicate, and represent your brand every day.
How to Celebrate:
A personalized HappyYOU Well Done Card is a thoughtful way to say “we see you.” For something extra meaningful, create a group gift from the other departments with messages and shoutouts showing appreciation for their creativity and dedication.
International Chess Day – July 20
Every workplace has its quiet masterminds, the planners, the analysts, the ones thinking five steps ahead. International Chess Day is the perfect time to spotlight your team’s strategic players and problem-solvers.
How to Celebrate:
Send a note that says, “For every smart move you’ve made, thank you.” Pair it with a HappyYOU Thank You Card that gives them the freedom to reward themselves their way. If you want to take it up a level, you can host a mini-chess tournament after hours where the winners can get a Multi-Brand eGift Card as a prize, bringing the team together.
International Day of Friendship – July 30
Friendship in the workplace boosts morale, encourages collaboration, and creates a stronger, more connected culture. International Day of Friendship is a powerful reminder to celebrate those relationships.
How to Celebrate:
Encourage your team to send a small eGift Card with a personal note to a colleague who’s made an impact. Or go bigger with a group gifting moment, let teams come together to create a heartfelt, personalized gift for someone special.
The HappyYOU Card – The Ultimate Reward
Finding the right gift can feel overwhelming. The HappyYOU Card simplifies the process by giving your team access to over 1,000 brands across the region, ensuring they can enjoy their rewards exactly as they please.
