Most of us write-off skateboards as a toy and distraction. But skateboards are a powerful hook for kids in low-income areas to help them make friends, practice resilience, express themselves, build confidence, and create an identity. Skateboarding is an amazing space for problem solving and determination. Kids work for hours on a trick until they can do it flawlessly. That type of dedication is a prized lifeskill. Help some local children taste independence and give them their first skateboard that you’ll assemble for them. Your teams will assemble the boards and create meaningful artwork on the bottom as a message to the youth of your community.
During the event you’ll apply the grip tape (sandpaper stuff on top of the board), you’ll put bearings in the wheels, mount the wheels on the trucks, mount the trucks on the board and your team will create a heartfelt design for the bottom of the skateboard.
Teams have the opportunity to see their donation on a large scale. Care package builds can help create additional meaning within your workforce.

“I highly recommend FireFly for your next team building event!! They worked with me on pricing, event type and handled all the arrangements regarding set up and break down. We had a great time interacting with work colleagues in a different way as well as giving back to the community. We can’t wait to book our next event with them!!”
