Over the last week, Nathan, our Managing Director, has been lucky enough to spend some time in sunny Perth, visiting Buddiup and Sisterup and catching up with co-founders and directors Alastair and Shannon, the leadership team and wider team.

When we started the journey of bringing Buddiup and Sisterup to Geelong, we always believed we would be stronger together. And we certainly are!

We’re incredibly fortunate to have this partnership. It gives us the opportunity to share ideas, learn from one another, discuss what’s working, what we could do better and how we can continue to evolve our programs and delivery to have an even greater impact.

With significant changes happening across the NDIS, and more on the horizon, these conversations are more valuable than ever. Being able to navigate challenges, explore opportunities and continue improving together benefits everyone, but most importantly, the young people we support.

At the heart of Buddiup and Sisterup is a shared mission:
Providing meaningful opportunities for people with disability to live a healthier life and develop social connections, through health, relationships, community, and learning.

Through our key pillars we aim to build confidence, capability, independence and meaningful friendships, while making sure our participants are having fun and enjoying themselves along the way!

While the NDIS landscape continues to change, our mission remains exactly the same.

We’re incredibly grateful to be part of the Buddiup and Sisterup family and excited about what we can continue to achieve together. 🩷💜💙

⛳️ X-GOLF FOR GOOD! 💙

How good is this!

X-Golf Australia | Indoor Golf & Bar Geelong have been incredible supporters of ours over the years, so when they reached out and asked if The Buddiup Project would like to be their local charity partner for this year’s X-Golf for Good campaign, of course we jumped at the opportunity!

We’re so grateful for their ongoing support and for getting behind our mission of creating more meaningful opportunities for our community.

From October 5 to November 15, X-Golf venues across Australia are raising funds for their chosen charity partners, with all funds raised locally in Geelong going towards The Buddiup Project! 🙌

Here’s some of what’s happening:

⛳️ X-League Mulligans: Players can purchase mulligans for $5 each from October 12 to 14.

🏌️ Community Night: A special night bringing our community together. More details to come!

🎁 Silent Auction: Some fantastic prizes will be up for grabs, with all funds raised from Geelong’s auction items going directly to The Buddiup Project. If you or your business would like to donate an item, product, service or experience, please reach out!

💙 Donations: You can also donate directly at X-Golf Geelong throughout the campaign.

But one of the best ways to support X-Golf and our community is simply to get yourself into X-Golf Geelong for a game!

Young or old, golfer or non-golfer, it doesn’t matter! It’s such a fun experience for everyone. Grab your mates, take the family or organise a work catch-up. You’ll have a ball! ⛳️

A massive thank you to the entire X-Golf Geelong team for getting behind us. Support like this helps us continue creating opportunities for our Buddiup boys, Sisterup girls and the wider community.

So get behind a local business that continues to get behind our community! 💙

X Golf for good, and for a great cause! ⛳️

🙌 How good is this!

We are so proud of Clem for getting involved and volunteering at the Geelong West Toy Library 🧸

Clem had an absolute ball and was a huge help to the team!

This is exactly what our partnership with the Toy Library is all about. It’s a win for everyone! 💙🩷

Not only are our Buddiup boys, and hopefully soon our Sisterup girls, giving back and supporting a wonderful service that does so much for our local community, they’re also gaining valuable skills, building confidence and experiencing what it’s like to be part of a workplace team.

Our hope is that opportunities like these can become stepping stones towards future employment and greater independence.

And most importantly, having plenty of fun along the way!

We’re so excited to see more of our boys and girls getting involved on Thursdays and Saturdays!

If you’d like to give volunteering a go, yell out to the team. We’d love to get you involved! 🙌

Final fundraising post before tomorrow’s Geelong Running Festival 💙🩷

Last night our Managing Director Nathan was honoured to receive a Community Fundraising Honour, presented by Lee Troop in recognition of “outstanding generosity, leadership and commitment to our community.”

But this recognition belongs to our entire Buddiup & Sisterup community and every single person who has donated, shared and supported our fundraising.

Together, we’ve raised an incredible $12,424!

And we’re going to ask one more time…

Can we crack $13,000 before the starting gun tomorrow? 🏃‍♂️💙🩷

If you can spare a few dollars, hit the link in our bio or story. Every dollar helps us create more opportunities for young people in our community.

$576 to go. Let’s do it! 🙌

We know we are going Geelong Running Festival spam, but this is such an incredible event for our community! ❤️

Such a great morning to kick off the festival with the Kids and All Abilities Run.

So good to have so many of the Buddiup and Sisterup crew there running, supporting and celebrating each other.

We are so proud of everyone who took on the run today and got out there and gave it a go.

This is what it’s all about. Community, inclusion, support and celebrating everyone having a crack!

What a way to kick off an incredible weekend. Bring on tomorrow! 🏃‍♂️🙌
