“Hearing the crew members at nonPareil share how technology has shaped their lives and how Samsung products specifically further empower them was incredibly rewarding,” said Daniel Goldberg, Smartphone Product Manager at Samsung. “These interactions not only highlighted the transformative potential of our innovations, but also reinforced the profound impact of connecting with customers on a personal level. Visiting The nonPareil Institute offered a powerful reminder of how our daily decisions, both big and small, ripple out to touch lives in ways we might not immediately recognize. Whether it’s adding an accessibility feature, crafting promotions that put our products in more hands, or simply creating excitement that makes a customer proud to use their device, every role within our organization contributes to shaping meaningful experiences for others.”
Suzanne De Silva, Head of Mobile Go-to-Market, further explained, “I volunteered at nonPareil because I believe in unlocking potential – helping individuals discover their strengths and find careers where they can truly thrive. Working with the neurodivergent young adults at nonPareil taught me that to truly do this, I need to look beyond the traditional frameworks of employee development. I’ve witnessed how individuals who struggle in such frameworks can become exceptional when processes are designed around clarity, structure and playing to cognitive strengths.”
Food Security: Supporting Human Services for Healthy Communities
By collaborating with community organizations, Samsung actively looks to enhance access to essential resources and improve the quality of life for members of its local neighborhoods. Employees contribute to this by volunteering with local food banks, meal delivery programs and shelters, utilizing their time and skills to address food security issues in communities nationwide.
For the third Day of Service in a row, employees in Texas transformed the office into a Feed the Funnel Party with The Pack Shack. Participants grabbed their hairnets, turned up the tunes and engaged in a high energy assembly line to pack over 40,000 meals to be donated to the Plano Independent School District Food Pantry, ensuring that no student goes hungry
