Doggie Care Package Creation For Team Building

Got a group of animal lovers? This is absolutely, paws-itively the most doggone fun your team can have outside of work—minus the tail wags and belly rubs.

Equal parts collaborative and competitive, this team-building activity promotes camaraderie and benefits canines in need of a little love. Is your group up for the challenge? We double-dog dare you!

What should you expect from this charitable team-building activity?

We’ve yet to see a team that hasn’t emerged from this activity more energized and connected than they were before they walked in, so we feel pretty confident saying that you can expect the same!

But there’s more to this activity than just standing around packing boxes. Yes, your group will work together in small teams to put together doggie care packages. However, to acquire the toys and treats for each box, teams will have to engage in a series of fun, competitive challenges. We won’t say it’s a dog-eat-dog kind of thing, but the element of light competition never fails to trigger lots of laughter and makes the event even more memorable.

At the end of the day, the completed packages will be donated to an animal rescue organization or no-kill shelter. When possible, we try to have a representative from the receiving charity onsite to address your group.

What’s included in the doggie care package event?

Participants will have access to:

  • Team bandanas
  • Professional emcee/facilitator
  • Onsite coordinator
  • Setup and teardown
  • Decoration supplies for packages
  • Boxes or bags
  • Filler items
  • Coordination with a relevant organization
  • Team photos
  • Team highlights session

How does making doggie care packages help your group connect with one another?

Collaborating on something meaningful and fun outside the realm of work allows teams to interact and bond with one another in a different way. Coming together in pursuit of a worthy cause also boosts morale, helping employees to feel happier at work.

Our Doggie Care Package Creation activity gives your team the opportunity to make an impact on a large scale. Knowing their efforts will support lots of furry friends as they await their forever homes is immensely gratifying and rewarding.

What do our previous customers have to say about the experience?

Firefly has had the pleasure of working with some real heavy-hitters in the corporate world, such as Amazon, Disney, and Red Bull. But we love working with small and indie businesses just as much—especially when they send us love notes!

Doggie Care Package Creation FAQs

Tell us your deadline and our AMAZING team will try to make it possible. In a perfect world we’d have at least three weeks. BUT if the stars align and we can coordinate with a charity more quickly, we can move faster.

Possibly. We have made this happen in the past. It always hinges on the ability of the non-profit or partner organization to bring out animals that can tolerate groups. Some non-profits work with animals that are in the midst of rehabilitation or suffer from severe anxiety. We will always try if your group wants animals there.

A secondary option is to make the activity a “Bring your pet to work” day in the office.

We’re happy to offer assistance but permits are on a case-by-case basis. When it comes to venues we’ll consult with you on questions specific to this activity.

Yep! We take great pride in our emcees, all of whom have superpowers when it comes to keeping things lively and energetic. They’ll take care of every last detail, getting your group pumped up before the event and keeping things running smoothly throughout. They can even facilitate a short debrief afterward to ensure your team members take the most relevant aspects of this positive experience back to their desks.

100% yes! Thinking up new, creative ideas is one of our favorite things to do. Or, if you have an inkling of an idea that your team might go for, hit us with it and we’ll sculpt, fortify, and bedazzle it into an incredible custom event that will build connections, create stories, and elicit big smiles.

Keep in mind, too, that if one of our non-charity team events strikes a chord with you, we can easily add on an element that would serve to benefit a community of your choice.
