Mini-Golf Build and Food Donation: A Creative, Competitive, and Charitable Team Experience
Looking for a way to combine creativity, friendly competition, and community impact? The Mini-Golf Build and Food Donation event challenges your team to design and build their own mini-golf holes—using non-perishable food items that are later donated to a local food bank.
This interactive program encourages collaboration, resourcefulness, and out-of-the-box thinking—all while making a meaningful difference for people in need.
Program Agenda
After an energizing warm-up, your group is divided into golf teams of 10. Each team is tasked with designing and building a unique mini-golf hole using canned and boxed goods, indoor/outdoor carpeting, cardboard, and decorative materials. Teams are responsible for the hole’s construction, layout, theme, and even the rules of play.
Once the full course is completed, participants rotate through the holes to play a round of team-designed miniature golf. Officials ensure each hole’s rules are followed and that gameplay stays on par (pun intended!). No golf experience necessary—this game is all about innovation and fun.
Following the tournament, teams break down their creations and repack the food for donation. In many cases, a representative from the receiving organization joins to personally thank the group and share how the donations will be used.

We were extremely satisfied with the way our Charity Mini-Golf Course Build was organized. The icebreaker and the golf course build were great team builders. Everyone was very happy with everything, from icebreaker to donation. Playing the completed golf course was the most fun. Your lead facilitator was excellent, this was our second year with him and he knows how to keep our group happy and engaged. Well done!
