Case Study: Success Academy achieves higher employee engagement and wellness participation with Fond Rewards

How Success Academy Scaled Their Engagement and Wellness Programs Using Fond Rewards

Success Academy, a New York City charter school network, struggled to help staff find time for wellness and connection, while large-scale engagement programs were difficult to organize, track, and scale. The company turned to Fond Rewards to support its employee wellness and recognition efforts.

Fond implemented an automated rewards-based step challenge for Success Academy’s “Success for Life” initiative, removing manual work for the Benefits team and making rewards easy to track and redeem. The program drove almost 50% participation, 15.8 million more steps in 30 days, a 2.4x national average participation rate for wellness programs, and a reported 20% increase in work performance from walking together.
