Dechert LLP Builds Bikes and Bonds With Build-a-Bike Event in Philadelphia, PA

To wrap up a series of departmental meetings, Dechert’s IT team came together for some hands-on collaboration. With wrenches in hand, they tackled mini-challenges, built bikes, and worked across sub-teams to encourage communication and connection. The vibe was upbeat, and the results? A mix of well-built bicycles and stronger team bonds. The highlight came when children from Not My Child, Inc.—a local nonprofit—walked in to receive the bikes in person. The room shifted. There were smiles, a few misty eyes, and a shared sense of purpose. It wasn’t just about the bikes anymore—it was about making a direct, heartfelt impact. We’d like to thank Dechert LLP for bringing their team together in such a meaningful way. And we’re grateful to Not My Child, Inc. for their ongoing work supporting children and families in the community.
