The holiday party fades by January. A Kynd Kit build — where your team makes something real for someone who needs it most — doesn't.
Kynd Kits are volunteer projects in a box, designed to make the holiday season meaningful for your team and transformative for the people your community serves. Works in-person, remote, or hybrid. Everything shipped. Fully managed. Ready in under 3 weeks.
Most companies do something for the holidays. A party. A gift card. A catered lunch. A trivia game on Zoom. These aren't bad things — but they're not memorable things. By February, most employees couldn't tell you what happened at the holiday party.
Kynd Kits are different. When your team sits down together — in the office or on a call — and builds something with their hands for a person in genuine need, during the time of year when that need is greatest, something shifts. People feel it. They talk about it. They carry it with them.
The holiday season is when community organizations see the sharpest spike in need. Homeless shelters are at capacity. Mental health resources are stretched thin. Children in foster care, seniors in isolation, families in crisis — they need more during the holidays, not less. A Kynd Kit built by your team reaches exactly those people, at exactly the right time.
Whether your team wants to support mental wellness, youth in need, housing insecurity, or another cause that resonates this holiday season, there's a Kynd Kit for it.
Kynd Kit holiday programs can be paired with add-ons that extend the experience and deepen the impact for your team.
Ask your program manager about add-ons during your discovery call.
Every November and December, someone in HR asks: are we doing the holiday party again? And every year the answer is the same: yes, because no one has a better idea.
Kynd Kits is a better idea.
Not instead of celebration — employees deserve to feel appreciated and celebrated at the end of the year. But a Kynd Kit build can be the centerpiece of your holiday event rather than an add-on or an afterthought. Build for an hour, then celebrate. Give back together, then gather together. The sequence changes everything — because it means your team is celebrating something real, not just going through the motions.
The companies that have made Kynd Kits part of their holiday tradition tell us the same thing: employees look forward to it more than the party. Not because the party isn't fun — but because the build is the part they actually remember.
At Xactly, a large part of our core values C.A.R.E. is about giving back to the community. Kynd Kits are an excellent way to keep our employees engaged and ensure our philanthropic spirit continues to thrive. What we love most is the variety of kits available and the emphasis each project places on reflection and gratitude for the individual completing the kit and the individual receiving it.
The earlier you book, the more options you have. Don't wait until December.
