The Wildwoods, NJ – April 10, 2024 – Morey’s Piers and Beachfront Water Parks, located in
Wildwood, NJ, just released its 2024 recruitment campaign highlighting a habit we’re all familiar
with—endless hours of thumb-scrolling through social media, when we could be spreading the
kindness in real life. Partnering with friend of the Piers, John Lynch, Morey’s is contributing up to $10,000 to the #ThumbsUp4Kindness cause as part of this year’s recruitment drive.
“At Morey’s Piers, we value giving back to our community and to our broader industry,” said
Denise Beckson, Vice President of Human Resources with Morey’s Piers. “I’m really excited we
are able to incorporate that philosophy into our recruiting campaign this season. It’s a perfect
fit — our jobs are unique and fun, but also considerate and kind — and we get to contribute
to and highlight community kindness with this initiative.”
John Lynch, the founder of Lunch with Lynch, added, “The Lunch with Lynch Foundation is
proud of its partnership with the Team at Morey’s Piers. Morey’s was one of our first local
businesses that jumped right on board with our organization that supports our local schools
and children! Our mission is Paying it Forward with Random Acts of Kindness and there is no
greater place to work at, that encourages its associates to Pay it Forward with Kindness as
they work on Piers and Water Parks.”
Morey’s launched the campaign with a $2500 donation, immediately reaching 25% of the
goal (as seen on the thumb-ometer in the above photo)! This year’s campaign uses various.
tactics to get prospective applicants’ attention, including billboards, social media ads, videos,
and large foam thumbs. The more interaction the campaign gets, the more Morey’s
contributes to John Lynch’s project. Visits to WorkMoreys.com, thumbs up on social media
posts (likes), shares and tagging @MoreysPiers all contribute to driving up the donation
thumb-ometer to reach the $10k goal.
Over the years, Morey’s has become well-known in the area for creating hiring campaigns.

“Typically, a hiring campaign isn’t going to be the most creative thing you get to work on –
but Morey’s is no typical client, and neither are their thumb-er jobs,” said Rob Reed, Partner
at One Trick Pony. “The campaign taps into thumb-thing we all have in common —too much
time wasted scrolling social, when we could be learning and earning at the beach.”
