Engage Your Team, Empower a Child
Wish for Wheels transforms the lives of 2nd-grade students in underserved areas through unique employee engagement experiences.
The gift of a new bike and helmet provides kids with access to fun, physical activity, neurological benefits, and a chance to expand their independence.
Teams who come together to work towards a common goal with philanthropy in mind are more likely to:
Be more engaged in their workplace, enhancing company culture
Achieve stronger results in their work, improving your bottom line
Stay with your organization for a longer period of time, reducing turnover-related costs
If you’re looking to engage your team in a way actually works, our Team Build & Give program is the solution you’ve been searching for!
We bring corporate teams together to build bikes for children in local Title I schools while engaging in fun challenges that naturally improve communication, collaboration, and the bonds your team share.
It can be tricky to find a team building experience that…
✔️ Piques the interest of your team and engages them
✔️ Creates opportunities to improve communication
✔️ Strengthens the bonds of your team
✔️ Gives back to the local community
… but our Team Build & Give events check all the boxes!
See the Impact. Feel the Joy. Change a Life.
Your team has built the bikes, lined them up, and paired them with helmets. Now, it’s time for the moment you’ve all been waiting for: watching the 2nd-grade class walk in, eyes wide and smiles glowing.
Your team steps in, not just to hand over a bike, but to make sure each child is ready to ride.
They help adjust seats and handlebars, fit helmets just right, and guide those first, wobbly pedals. Some kids grip the handlebars nervously, never having ridden before. Others need a steady hand on their back before they find their balance. Your team becomes their coaches, their cheerleaders, the ones who encourage them to push off and take that first real ride.
That’s when the real magic happens.
The moment of pure joy when a child realizes, ‘I can do this!’
Your team doesn’t just build bikes. They build confidence, connection, a lasting sense of freedom, and a brighter future for the children right in front of them.
After seeing the impact they made firsthand, your team will leave knowing they changed lives, together.
How it Works
Since 2004, Wish for Wheels has worked with companies across the US — from Hawaii to New York — providing bikes to under-resourced children through our Team Build & Give Program. No matter where you are, Wish for Wheels can coordinate with Title I schools in your community to help deserving 7- and 8-year olds ride off into a brighter future!
