Why this event?
As U.S. troops continue to deploy and defend our interests overseas, many companies want to know how they can show gratitude for the sacrifices service members make on our behalf. Thoughtfully assembled care packages are a great way to accomplish this, even if you don’t know the recipients personally.
Of course, this is TeamBonding. So naturally, we’ve transformed this show of gratitude into a team building activity designed to boost morale and foster connections within your own group.
Collecting everything they’ll need to create care packages isn’t a simple exercise. Teams must engage in a series of fun challenges, earning points as they go. In the end, they’ll trade those points for items and materials. After the packages are completed, teams tally their points – though the real winners are our troops overseas.
Friendly competition is always a great way to engage people, and this event is no exception.
You’ll be amazed at how energizing and uplifting this program can be for everyone involved, and what your team can accomplish back at work after an event that pulls everyone together for such a rewarding cause. That’s the beauty of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) done with clear intention.
*When timing and circumstances allow, we’re happy arrange for an established charity such as Operation Homefront or Blue Star Mothers to accept your gifts in person.
“I am currently deployed to Afghanistan. I received an amazing package (you guys were spot on with items I love… Ramen noodles, popcorn, romantic comedies..don’t judge). I wanted to thank you so much and it meant a lot to get a package when I least expected it.”
