Charity Building: Ideas for a Unique Christmas Team Building

Written by Lucia Conti
The Christmas season traditionally comes with an atmosphere of joy, sharing, and kindness, values that can also play an important role in regular business practices, such as reinterpreting the classic team-building activities. Considering the approaching holidays, why not schedule a charity building activity? Let’s specifically look at what it involves and examine some concrete options..

Teamwork and Solidarity: The Importance of Charity Building

Like team building, charity building offers team members the opportunity to strengthen their cohesion and internal collaboration, but with added value. In this case, the union of the participants’ skills and resources goes beyond purely business dimensions and achieves a much more important result: helping others.

Such activities can be many and different, but the purpose is always the same, that is, to do something concrete to support a community, a charity, or an organization that works to make the world a better place.

The satisfaction derived from having a positive tangible impact on the community can inspire the workgroup much more than regular team-building, promoting exceptionally meaningful interactions among colleagues who will discover their unity on a much deeper level.

Ideas for a Christmas Charity Building

The opportunities to organize a Christmas charity building are different and also allow for a certain quota of creativity. Here are some possible ideas:

  • Involve the team in a workshop to assemble toys for children who might need them.
  • Organize and manage a food collection in collaboration with local organizations that help the needy.
  • Have personalized gift packages created, destined for the elderly living in precarious and lonely conditions that tend to weigh even more during the holidays.
  • Set up a “Wish Tree” in a common area, hanging cards with requests such as food for a soup kitchen, clothes for a shelter, or school supplies for a struggling school. Each team member will choose a card, take care of the purchase, and donate the requested item.
  • Organize a charity sale. Team members will bring items they no longer use and set up a small market inside the office. The proceeds will later be donated to a charity.

Experiences that speaks for themselves: the commitment of Smart Eventi

Smart Eventi has long stood out in this industry. The event organized for the well-known pharmaceutical company, Recordati, for example, involved participants in a series of challenges, quizzes, and skill games, which awarded the winners a mysterious reward, contained in a bag that should remain closed. In the end, the revelation: the prizes that the teams had won with each challenge were actually wheelchair components, later assembled and donated to a local hospital.

This type of activity was also organized for another Smart Eventi client, Leica Microsystems, who had specifically requested an event focused on inclusion, diversity, and charity.

Do something different for the upcoming Christmas

Charity building is this and much more, and above all, it is a rewarding journey that unites, inspires, and offers authentic gratification, linked to the awareness of having done something beautiful and useful.

Why not, therefore, opt for a different and special team-building activity for the upcoming holidays? An initiative of this kind will offer your entire workgroup intense and meaningful moments, marking the end of the year in the best way and giving depth and a different meaning to normal business practices.
