Closing a multi-day conference with energy is one of the harder design problems on any event agenda. Checkout.com solved it in Atlanta on August 5, 2026 with a aMAZEing Builders charity team building event. About 50 participants from four cities competed in aMAZEing Builders and donated the completed builds to Agape Youth & Family Center, a community organization that serves youth and families across Atlanta.
Checkout.com is a global payment technology company with operations in more than 150 countries. Their 2026 offsite brought together sales, marketing, and writing teams from New York, Atlanta, California, and Canada. Amazing Builders was the final item on the agenda.
What aMAZEing Builders Does at the End of a Long Conference in Atlanta
Late-conference sessions compete against fatigue and distraction. Most formats lose the room. aMAZEing Builders works because it is competitive and physical, teams navigate an obstacle course blindfolded collecting supplies and necessities for local kids into backpacks. The structure pulls people in rather than asking them to show up voluntarily. For a group that had been in sessions for several days, that difference matters.
The group started competitive and held that energy through the end. Around 50 people produced a donation that Agape Youth & Family Center sent William Green to collect. He cleared his schedule with two days’ notice. He brought a photographer. His preparation was a signal.
Agape has worked with this Checkout.com contact before. The repeat relationship between a charity and a corporate team is part of what makes these events build over time rather than just filling a date.
Planning a charity team building event for a conference, company retreat, or global offsite in Atlanta? An aMAZEing Builders event gives any group a competitive, purposeful way to close, one that leaves the city with something rather than leaving the room empty.
