Project Fido is ideal to bring teams together and can also be done as a meaningful community project which will work for you and your people.

The entire process is facilitated by Elephants in Main Street facilitators and the project is not only rewarding for team delegates, but the different pet owners receiving the kennels afterwards are eternally grateful.

The kennels are decorated to the discretion of the delegates. From abstract painted walls to cute doggy pictures placed on the inside walls of the kennels - the choice is yours!

Project Fido will involve everyone of your team and does not exclude people by age, fitness or gender. It encourages both competition and co-operation in the pursuit of a common goal.

What the team will experience?
read more


"In a perfect world, every dog would have a home and every home would have a dog."

Your teams will experience what it is like to plan, build and deliver high quality dog kennels to dogs in need. You can build one, or 20 at a time.

You have the opportunity to go into communities, help rescue dogs and design a shelter that will positively change the wellbeing of many abused dogs. Your teams will work hand in hand with the SPCA or Animal Anti-Cruelty organisations in this process.

In the past few years of running this service we have, with the help of our clients, changed the living conditions and health of many dogs. We have also helped raise awareness of animal care in the communities we have worked in... and seen quite a few dogs adopted too.

Your team will change in terms of their awareness, attitude and understanding toward each other, their pets, the community and their responsibility in terms of caring for animals. They will feel less title, role and function oriented and more human in the process.

Your people will have the support a competent technical team to help them build safe, high quality units that will last long after the event. For the people who have ten thumbs, they will walk away having the confidence and pride in creating something together with their colleagues that is meaningful and makes an impact on other people's lives.

The teams are tasked with painting the company's logo and slogan on the kennels.
