Team Building Programs for Charity

The outcome of this team building activity is twofold – firstly, you undertake a team challenge that strengthens your team and bonds them through an experience and secondly you are creating or building something that will be given to a charity or good cause.

These programs are fun and as a corporate exercise it’s ideal for lifting staff morale as it makes you feel good giving something to those that are less fortunate. Some charity team building programs include building bikes from scratch, making hampers or building cubby houses.

This challenge is great for encouraging creativity and developing stronger working relationships, and the pressure of cooking a gourmet meal with a group of people can be thrilling.

We have many venues where you can compete in a Masterchef-style activity and they generally operate as follows:

  • Judging by the chef
  • All sit down and enjoy the meal together

The only requirement is a conference room to set up roulette, black jack tables and more and to really get into the spirit teams can get dressed up and go Las Vegas style for a great night.
