Randstad Canada Builds More Than Bikes in Cancun
TL;DR
- Randstad Canada’s top performers joined Grupo Events in Cancun for a give-back experience.
- They built bikes for students supported by The KKIS Project — combining fun with real impact.
- Through teamwork, collaboration, and creative challenges, the group transformed their incentive trip into a meaningful day of purpose and connection.
When Randstad Canada’s top sales performers arrived in Cancun, their incentive trip came with a meaningful twist. Instead of just celebrating their success under the Caribbean sun, they spent the morning creating something with lasting impact.
They teamed up and took on the challenge of building brand-new bicycles for local school students in Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya.
A Challenge with Heart
In true Grupo Events style, this wasn’t simply about tightening bolts or following instructions. Teams faced a series of high-energy challenges to earn the parts and tools they needed, turning the Bike Build Give Back into a fast-paced test of communication, creativity, and collaboration.
Piece by piece, laughter and teamwork filled the room as each group transformed a pile of unassembled parts into a fully functioning bike – complete with finishing touches and heartfelt notes to the student who would soon receive it.
Connecting Purpose and People
Before the challenge began, participants learned about the students supported by The KKIS Project, a local nonprofit dedicated to helping children stay in school. For many of these students, a bicycle isn’t just a gift – it’s vital transportation that saves them a long walk to and from school each day.
It’s a gateway to education and opportunity.
That connection added depth to every turn of the wrench. When the final bikes were lined up, ready to roll into their new owners’ hands, the teams could see the tangible difference their efforts would make. It wasn’t just a team-building exercise; it was a moment of shared purpose and joy.
A Tradition of Giving Back
This marks the third year that Randstad Canada has partnered with Grupo Events for a corporate social responsibility experience that blends motivation with meaning. From school clean-ups to classroom supply drives and now the bike-building challenge, each initiative has strengthened team bonds while leaving a positive mark on the local community.
These events are proof that success feels even better when it fuels something greater – an ethos that lies at the core of Grupo’s charity team-building programs.
