Take your company to the 12h challenge
Saas-Grund, Switzerland | March 22, 2025
Turn team building into a life-changing experience. Push your limits with a 12-hour ski and snowboard relay race, and together with your colleagues, contribute contribute to a good cause. Challenge yourself, push your limits and do something good for another.
As a team of 3, you choose the challenge that suits your ambitions: Fun, Distance or Tour. Together with your colleagues, you have to set up a crowdfunding campaign leading up to the event. Each team needs to raise a minimum of €1,500 (€500 per person). This funding will finance the Mentelity Games: an unforgettable week in the mountains, where people with disabilities develop new strengths.
An online meeting was recently held for companies wishing to participate in the Challenge with colleagues. You can watch a summary of this meeting back here. Some highlights to watch with the number of minutes at which the piece begins:

How to participate
Will you follow the example of this company?
Last March, Vanbreda Risk & Benefits B.V. participated with 12 colleagues in the 12-hour Challenge. Divided into four teams, the colleagues took on the challenge of skiing or snowboarding for 12 hours in a relay race.
Coen van Ham (general manager) talks about his experience: "With our participation we helped a young lady (Lies Kroeze) to be able to snowboard again after her leg amputation and at the same time we gave a very concrete impulse to the social commitment of our employees and our company. This has inspired us enormously and we have really started to look differently at people with disabilities."
