PBPL rolls up our sleeves for TRACTION

Twenty-eight CEOs and business leaders from across Brisbane swapped the Boardroom for the workshop to help young people involved with local charity TRACTION assemble new bicycles as part of the TRACTION CEO Bike Build event during September.

PBPL's Interim CEO and CFO, Neil Stephens, put his skills on display along with other PBPL employees who provided bike building support and helped ensure the day ran smoothly. 

During the half day session, TRACTION  participants led the role of building a bike, guiding their CEO partner to get the job done. 

Port of Brisbane was delighted to provide the Multi-User Terminal for the event, with a makeshift workshop set up inside the building and a temporary track set up in the car park for participants to test out their new bikes.

The event raised over $110,000 for TRACTION programs, which engage young people in  'hands on' learning programs aimed at building their resilience, leadership teamwork skills, and keeping them in schools.

We're delighted to support Traction through our Community Grants program. Find out more on our website.
