Build-A-Bike ® Team Building Events

The Original Charity Team Building Event

Build-A-Bike® is the original charity team building event that revolutionized how fun team building events are delivered! Almost a decade ago, The Leader's Institute® came up with a brilliant idea to combine fun team building activities with charity donations, and viola! The philanthropic team building industry was created almost overnight. Bike team building events like Build-A-Bike® are great alternatives at annual meetings or conventions because they add fun and philanthropy without increasing your investment! The Leader's Institute® is still the industry leader in bike team building activities. In the past decade, we've given away almost $1 Million worth of bicycles to needy kids in cities all over the US, Canada, and Europe.

Philanthropic Team Building:

  • Allows for fun teamwork with a purpose.
  • Lets team members build camaraderie in a high energy team activity.
  • Creates an emotional conclusion that will have your team clamoring about the experience.
  • Can be customized into two-hour or three-hour team events or combined with fun classroom training for a one-day or two-day team retreat.
