Charity Wheelchair Team Building Experience: A Charitable Team Building Experience that Gives Back
Build-a-Wheelchair® is a powerful and purpose-driven team building program designed to support individuals living with mobility challenges. This hands-on event combines fun, collaboration, and corporate social responsibility by having teams assemble and donate brand-new wheelchairs to local organizations in need.
This unique experience blends friendly competition with meaningful impact – helping participants bond while making a difference.
Program Agenda
The event kicks off with an energizer activity followed by a full program walkthrough by a professional lead facilitator. Teams of 10 then work together to earn the parts needed to assemble their wheelchairs by completing fast-paced challenges—such as Brainstorm games or Minute 2 Win It activities.
Once assembled, teams move through a safety station for a mechanical inspection. After ensuring each wheelchair is ready for use, teams add a personal touch by attaching handwritten notes of encouragement.
When space allows, the experience concludes with a wheelchair obstacle course challenge, where teams test maneuverability and teamwork in a friendly showdown.
To cap off the event, teams stage for a group photo, and—when possible—a representative from the beneficiary organization makes a surprise appearance to share how the donated wheelchairs will be used and the impact they will have.
