Group Projects (Ditch the Desk): Team Building With A Purpose!
Looking for an impactful way to energize your team and make a difference? A Little Help’s Ditch the Desk program invites groups from businesses, clubs, schools, or faith-based organizations to step outside their routines and help older adults in the community.
How It Works
With just 3 weeks' notice, your group can:
Pick a date and choose the type of project that excites your team.
Spend about 3 hours making a real difference through:
Kindness Kits (learn more)– Assemble and deliver thoughtful care packages filled with fun and useful items.
We can accommodate a variety of group sizes, but most will be split into smaller teams (typically 3-5 volunteers per home or activity) to ensure the best experience for both volunteers and older adults.
Why Ditch the Desk?
This program is a win-win:
For Older Adults: They feel valued, cared for, and connected to their community.
For Your Team: You’ll leave inspired, energized, and closer as a group. Studies even show that 89% of employees believe volunteering creates a better workplace culture (Deloitte Volunteerism Survey, 2017).

Share Your Experience: Post about your day on social media and tag A Little Help to inspire others.
