team build days

A unique team-building opportunity.

Step out of the office and onto a construction site. You’ll work under the guidance of construction staff and skilled volunteers. You'll build a Habitat home that will help a local family build stability through affordable home ownership.

We provide all the tools, safety equipment and training you'll need. The tasks on the day will be dependent on the stage of the build, but you can expect to do anything from framing to painting to landscaping. 

Our construction site is welcoming of all skill levels and your Build Day includes a catered lunch, team photo, and exclusive Habitat t-shirts to top off the entire experience.

We offer both Build Days and Premium Build Days. 

How Premium Build Days work:

• With Premium Build Days, your organization
  will be able to bring 6 additional participants
  to the construction site for a total of 18; the
  perfect option for a larger team building
  experience.
• Our team offers support with registration
  and scheduling and provides all necessary
  personal protective equipment and tools for
  your building experience. As well as expert
  training and supervision.
• With your Premium Build Day, your team
  will be provided with an enhanced hot lunch
  option and a dry-fit t-shirt to make your
  experience more memorable.
• With your Premium Build Day, your team
  will have the opportunity to meet one of our
  Habitat homeowners and learn about their
  amazing stories during lunch time.

How Build Days work:

• We take care of it all, from registration to tool
  belts, all you have to do is show up! Our build
  sites can accommodate teams of 12 people per
  day with a minimum contribution of $5,000 from
  a corporate partner.
• Your corporate sponsorship will build a Habitat
  home and pay for the building materials and
  land, which supports the construction costs and
  directly benefits a Habitat partner family – while
  taking part in a rewarding and powerful teambuilding
  experience! An investment in a Habitat
  Southern Alberta build is an investment in your
  team members, your community, and your
  corporate brand.

A fun community engagement activity for your company.

By participating in a Build Day, you’ll join hundreds of like-minded companies who are dedicated to building their community by partnering with one of the most well-known non-profit brands in the world. 

The minimum donation for corporate groups is $5,000. Through this investment and your Build Day experience, your team is transforming the lives of families in the communities you work in.

This creates a bond and sense of pride that teammates will carry back into the workplace.

It's easy!

All you have to do is put together the people, and we’ll take care of the rest.

You’ll receive a Build Day toolkit and welcome package, and you’ll get access to our online registration and fundraising platforms to make it easy for everyone!
