Empowering Foster Youth at NBC’s Team Building Day
Employees at NBCUniversal came together for a team summit event last month, uniting for an impactful team building experience. The event brought together 30 staff members who helped prepare Foster Love Sweet Cases—duffle bags that are personally decorated and packed with essential items for children in foster care. This experience not only supported a great cause but also demonstrated the value of meaningful team building activities in creating stronger, lasting connections between teammates.Â
Strong Teamwork in Action
This team building event was a huge success and showcased how well the NBCUniversal staff worked together as a team, reinforcing their commitment to collaboration and support. As they added personal touches and assembled their Sweet Cases, the volunteers communicated effectively and coordinated their efforts seamlessly. This teamwork ensured every bag was packed with love and would help many foster families get essential supplies they might otherwise not receive.Â
With an already strong team of volunteers, this activity brought the NBC closer together and united them for a cause they were passionate about. The shared experience not only strengthened their bonds but also deepened their understanding of the challenges faced by foster families. Together, they took pride in knowing that their efforts would make a meaningful difference in the lives of children in need.Â
Heartfelt Moments of Connection
The emotional impact of the experience prompted many attendees to express their commitment to continue advocating for foster youth. A few attendees were moved to tears hearing about the impact that they would have during the summit. Â
This profound connection to the cause was further emphasized by the presence of a former foster youth among the volunteers, who shared his personal experiences. He was deeply touched by Foster Love’s mission and expressed a deep appreciation for the support and resources being provided to children in foster care. His story was a reminder of the importance of the work NBC would be a part of that day and the difference it would make in the lives of children who are often overlooked.
A Renewed Sense of PurposeÂ
As the event concluded, the team expressed a renewed sense of purpose and motivation. The activity reinforced the idea that meaningful team building activities can strengthen bonds within a workplace while simultaneously supporting essential community initiatives.Â
The staff left the event energized, eager to apply their newfound insights into their daily work and interactions. This experience not only brought them closer together but also ignited a passion for philanthropy within the NBCUniversal team.

NBCUniversal’s work with Foster Love not only helped strengthen their team working skills, but also highlighted the organization’s commitment to social responsibility.
