Community Service Projects

Attendees will travel to a local school(s) and prepare sprout kits, garden signs, and build planter boxes. Once all materials are ready, the group will then install the garden and prepare the planters with soil and seeds. During this experience the group will also have the opportunity to further learn about sustainability, soil, vermiculture, pollination and agriculture. In Arizona close to 1 million people are struggling with hunger and over one-third are children. The mission of this program is to target schools in low-income areas and create a garden where the students can go to learn, garden, and grow fresh produce for their schools, creating a step forward in the fight to end child hunger.

ELFA and the Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation have teamed up to create a memorable cycling experience for a good cause. Starting from the JW Marriott Desert Ridge, riders will go on a 24-mile trip through the city of Phoenix. Riders will be guided by experienced tour guides and an SAC car will trail behind offering refreshments. Participants should bring their own riding gear, but there is a separate fee for rental of bikes and helmets.

These beautiful doghouses and care packages come into creation only with team collaboration and hard work! Teams create an amazing heartfelt moment as they donate their doghouse full of supplies for families who are thoughtful enough to adopt an animal in need. Upon completion of the dog houses and care packages, teams will have the opportunity to interact with dogs provided by the Maricopa County Animal Shelter.
