On Friday the 26th of September, BuildingPoint was proud to sponsor a hole at the Buildcorp Trade Partners Golf Day in Brisbane. The annual event is a chance to celebrate industry partnerships, connect with colleagues and peers, and most importantly, raise funds for a cause that matters to everyone in construction: supporting mental health and wellbeing.
About the Buildcorp Trade Partners Golf Day
The annual Golf Days are a special opportunity for Buildcorp to thank their trade partners for their support. More than just a chance to connect over a round of golf with peers, colleagues and friends, the event provides a meaningful way to give back to mental health through the Buildcorp Foundation.
Since 2012, the Buildcorp Foundation has raised over $6.5 million, with the Trade Partners Golf Day contributing $258,000 to date. This is a remarkable contribution that has directly supported mental health initiatives within the construction industry and beyond.
BuildingPoint on Course
Representing BuildingPoint on the day were account managers Liam Dixon (Field Solutions) and Samantha Porter (Business Management Solutions). Our team enjoyed connecting with players throughout the event and showcasing a different side of what our technology can do.
To add a little extra fun at our sponsored hole, we introduced an augmented reality golf experience that gave players a chance to test both their swing and their imagination. Using a SketchUp model placed in Trimble SiteVision, we created a virtual golf hole that could be viewed through an iPad right alongside the real fairway. Each player had two attempts to line up their shot and sink the ball into the digital green, blending the virtual and physical worlds.
The Buildcorp Foundation’s Impact
Since its establishment in 2015, the Buildcorp Foundation has been a purpose-built, independent charitable organisation dedicated to fundraising for mental health and suicide prevention in Australia. This year marks 10 years of partnership with Lifeline, during which time the Foundation has donated more than $2.3 million to Lifeline’s crisis support services.
This contribution makes Buildcorp not only Lifeline’s longest-serving National Partner but also its leading supporter within the construction industry. Their commitment ensures individuals in need can access timely support – a legacy that reflects the values of care, community and responsibility shared across the industry.
Why Supporting This Cause Matters to BuildingPoint
At BuildingPoint, we believe supporting wellbeing in construction is just as important as building for safety, quality, and productivity. Events like the Trade Partners Golf Day shine a light on what can be achieved when industry comes together – turning conversations into action and delivering positive outcomes for those who need it most.
We’re proud to stand alongside Buildcorp and their partners in celebrating a healthier, more connected industry, on and off the job site.
