What is TeamWorks?

TeamWorks is a program offered by Hands On Twin Cities to corporate volunteers. It is a hands-on team-oriented service experience that will allow you to volunteer and learn with the same group. Your group will participate in three to four services projects over a flexible period of time. Corporate Teamworks can be customized to fit the needs and interests of your company, providing a fulfilling and educational experience for corporate volunteers.

 

How can I participate?

Any corporate group can get involved! Pick from a variety of issues, including homelessness, animals, youth, education, immigrants and refugees, and environment. Each corporate team will have one project leader, as well as a Hands On Twin Cities staff member who will customize your TeamWorks experience based on your needs. Hands On Twin Cities will also provide guidance throughout the TeamWorks session. TeamWorks can accommodate anywhere from 5-12 volunteers.

After you pick your topic, Hands On Twin Cities will customize your experience by planning service projects at 3-4 different organizations that address your team’s issue of interest. Through reflection, you’ll explore ways to respond best to your community’s needs using the knowledge you learned, while building a sense of teamwork with your fellow employees. TeamWorks is meaningful volunteer action at its best!
