Yesterday was our semi-annual company wide volunteer day.  In reality our company offers opportunities to do something almost weekly, but twice a year there's a big push to get the entire company out of the office and onto the streets of Boston.  

Our department has been trying harder recently to make sure we're a part of these days, and I think it's really awesome.  besides the fact that it gives us a chance to help our community, it also gets us out of the office, talking to each other, and bonding.  Totally worth it.
