Why this event?

School supplies can be expensive – especially for middle and high school students. Tools for Schools provides an easy way for your team to make a difference in your own community by helping prepare young people for healthy, productive lives. 

But of course, this is TeamBonding. That means plenty of fun, along with powerful team building experiences. So your teams will need to earn their school supplies through creative mental and physical team challenges emphasizing cooperation, effective communication and a willingness to roll up their sleeves and get involved.

Another positive outcome? We purchase all school materials used for this event directly from B2SI, a nonprofit whose mission is to create and support educational opportunities that enrich the lives of children. So above and beyond your backpack donations, your organization is helping to support one of our favorite nonprofits. It all adds up to a nice win for everyone concerned.

We can easily adjust the length and complexity of this activity to fit your specific needs. We’ll provide the backpacks and everything you need to fill them, but you’re welcome to add items if your group is looking to invest even more. We’ll be happy to coordinate with a specific charity if you already have one in mind, or we can suggest one. We can also incorporate specific company messaging into the event. Just let us know what you have in mind.

Let's talk.
