Charity Challenges
What could be more rewarding for your team and the community than choosing a Charity Challenge for your next teambuilding activity? To enhance the event, Team Building Unlimited adds an element of competition and teambuilding into each of the Challenges. Enter into the Season of Giving-Year Round.
Everyone is a Winner in this Philanthropic Teambuilding Activity!
Charity Challenges are great for Community Service Days, Meeting or Conference, Celebration or Holiday Party
Charity Challenge #1: Trikes for Tots
Build a Trike for a Tot. Each team receives the same Tricycle parts, and our trained facilitators supervise the event. Participants will be challenged by several "children's competitive games" in order to receive the tricycle parts. The reward for building the Tricycles is the reward of giving back to the community. Trikes will be donated to the charity of your choice. Companies can choose their own charity or TeamBuilding Unlimited/Murder on the Menu can help you locate one in your area.
Variation: Bikes for Kids.
Charity Challenge #2:
Bears that Care
TeamBuilding Unlimited leads you in a Bears That Care Teddy Bear team-building event! This is a great way to bring your team together while providing comfort to needy children.
Each team will compete in a series of children's games and challenges to earn team points toward the "purchase" of parts and accessories needed to assemble Bears That Care. The competition continues as each person builds Teddy Bears (and other animals) and designs special Bear T-shirts that represent their team and their company.
Once the bears are completed, they are presented to local organizations: Shelters, Police, Fire, Disaster, Hospitals and more.
This Charity Challenge is fun and altruistic. It benefits your team and the children who receive the Bears that Care. It's a Win-Win team building event for your Team. Great for your Community Service day.

Charity Challenge #3:
Operation Military Giving
Especially at the Holidays, but all year round, TeamBuilding Unlimited offers this very special team building event that supports our troops!
This Charity Challenge incorporates Corporate Social Responsibility with TeamBuilding/ and TeamBonding. TeamBuilding Unlimited will lead your teams through an engaging, team-building activity that culminates in the final challenge: the assembly of fun and important items in "care" boxes for U.S Troops. Items included cover a large variety of toiletries, books, dried food, cookies and candy, batteries, music, clothing, Ziploc bags, games, beverages, and other snacks which will be used to fill the boxes to the top. Choosing the items to go into the boxes will also be a team effort and will be coordinated by the TeamBuilding Unlimited facilitators. Whenever possible, the staff from the benefiting service organization is there to receive the donations and convey their appreciation. This will also inspire the teams to continue to be involved and send much needed care packages in the future. The reward for packing the boxes is the reward of giving back to the troops. What a great team bonding activity for your team! In addition, each team will design and execute a t-shirt to go with the donation of each box.
TeamBuilding Unlimited can also include a series of fun "military" games to set the mood and determine the order of gift selection for the boxes.
Charity Challenge #6: Community Service Garden Project:
Project Green Thumb
TeamBuilding Unlimited will lead participants through a hands-on Green Gardening TeamBuilding event in which they work together to add trees, shrubs and flowers to public spaces, school, and parks. Project Green Thumb will match your participants with organizations that are in charge of these locations, and TBU will provide participants with all the tools, plants, and soil they will need to "Green the Community."
The Goal of Project Green Thumb is to establish a community service project that builds relationships through hands-on activities to establish community gardens, provide technical assistance, and provide a valuable service to the community.
Consider this for your Earth Day Celebration... or Any Time for Community Service. Give Back. Go Green!
Charity Challenge #5: Make Your Cake and Donate it Too!
This event is a twist on our interactive and delicious activity Have Your Cake and Eat it Too that really capitalizes on your team's creativity and sweet tooth and community service. Teams are challenged to design and decorate cakes to reflect their team, their company and more that will be donated to local hospitals, schools and children's centers.
TeamBuilding Unlimited provides the sheet cakes, decorations and icing that teams will use to create a visual and tasty masterpiece. What a great way to show your corporate responsibility during the holidays and throughout the year! TeamBuilding Unlimited can arrange with the charities to receive the cakes or clients can choose a group of their choice.
Charity Challenge #6:
Gingerbread Cookie Decorating & Donating
TeamBuilding Unlimited has added another fun and interactive team event for the Holidays that also gives back to the community. We provide Gingerbread Cookies, decorating tools, decorations and icing, and your group provides their time. Gingerbread Cookies are appreciated by everyone. They can be whimsical, holiday oriented, the sky's the limit! Cookies can be donated to hospitals, firehouses, family shelters, senior centers and lots of other organizations.
Charity Challenge #7: Community Mural/Quilt Art Project
Participants work in teams to "design" a piece of a Mural/Quilt that will be donated to the charity of their choice. Each team gets 1-2 squares to design about or for the organization to whom the quilt (mural) will be donated, the holiday or the company itself. The theme may even be part of the challenge, as the teams decide on the theme of the quilt/banner. TeamBuilding Unlimited works with your teams to ensure the theme is appropriate for the charity—but the best part is the creativity of your participants. TeamBuilding Unlimited will guide your creativity, provide the materials, and facilitate the event. The "quilt" is then put together—by your teams—and donated. Favorite themes: The World, the Holiday, Children, Children's Games, Seniors, How Your Company is making a Difference—the Sky's the Limit! So tap into your creativity for a good cause.
TeamBuilding Unlimited comes to YOUR meeting or conference. Anywhere in the U.S.
