Corporate Team Building

team building

[teem bil-ding]:  the ability to identify and motivate individual employees to form a team that stays together, works together, and achieves together.

Rebuilding Together has a long history with the corporate community.  As you and your colleagues work side by side to perform a vital community service, you are also strengthening the bonds that make your organization great.  Our rebuilding days provide an excellent opportunity for your company to work one or more days out of the office to rehabilitate the home of a low-income homeowner or a facility serving a community in need. In doing so, the corporate organization chart may be flipped on its head; the CEO may work on the team lead by the department supervisor and the CFO on the team lead by the maintenance worker.  Use this opportunity to work with partners and vendors to strengthen your alliance in today's competitive environment.  In addition to a "new" house for the homeowner or refurbished community facilty, your organization will benefit as well.  Leadership skills among your employees will be honed; lines of communication open and alliances fortified.

What's involved?

Corporate teams are the backbone of the rebuilding experience.  Your participation provides the financial support and core volunteer team to repair a house or facility.  As a fiscal sponsor, you provide a financial donation of $7,500 or more and a team of volunteers from 15-200 people.  Your tax-deductible sponsorship underwrites the cost of building materials, supplies, workday t-shirts and volunteer insurance.

Experience needed?

Skills are great, but there is plenty of work to do for unskilled volunteers.  All volunteers are welcomed and will be put to work!
