HELPING HANDS

So many of us are most grateful that we have food on our plates each day, clothing on our backs, and a warm (or cool) bed, in which to rest our weary bodies each night.  Sadly, there are many in our communities that long for just one of these each day. 

Helping Hands is a custom-designed event to help give back to those less fortunate in our communities.  After your group arrives at its respective “work zone,” participants are formed into teams, and participate in a spirited and inspiring ice breaker, to get them in the “karma kreation” state of mind.  After that, teams are tasked with challenges, using their hands, to help a community organization in need. 

At organizations including homeless shelters, food banks, youth shelters, hospice homes, LGTB centers . . . the list goes on . . . think about the possibilities of helping these organizations by . . . 

  •  Assembling boxes for a food drive
  •   Prepping food bank give-away boxes
  •   Painting the fitness center
  •   Gardening/planting/weeding gardens, flower beds, and planter boxes
  •   Building and assembling herb garden planters
  •   Assembling promotion kits
  •   Painting parking space lines and re-painting the numbers on each space
  •   Stuffing literature and “flyering” center activities at target retail areas
  •   Washing windows & deep cleaning 
  •  And more!

And, at times, with our charity partners, we’re able to identify individual families and provide a truly heart-warming event . . . a complete one-room “make-over.”  From daycare centers with limited funding, to single mothers, pulling themselves up by the bootstraps, after escaping an abusive marriage, to families that have lost everything from a natural disaster . . . there’s always someone in need.  Your team(s) will excitedly forge into a home or center, strip the room(s) bare, and then clean, paint, decorate, and furnish the space.  Accompanied by custom-made artwork and a lively garden or flower box, a brand new “home” is “born.” 

For groups that want to experience more than one project, we are able to have multiple projects happening at the same time, and “rotate” teams from site to site, picking up where their colleagues left off, fostering a true collaborative effort on the part of individual teams, but also, the entire group. 

Because of the nature of the program, and in order to ensure an outstanding experience, this program is completely customizable, in order to maximize the benefits for your group size, makeup, available time, and other variables.
