Our Sailing Supporters

The Brisbane Charity Regatta sets sail on 16 May from the beautiful Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron and we couldn’t hold the event each year without the support of our amazing partners. Over the past decade, the generosity shown by the property and construction industry has supported more than 1,448 young people, helping them transition off the streets and into safe homes.

Principal Partner for the Brisbane Regatta in 2025 is Built, their ninth consecutive year as the event’s major sponsor. Christian Adamson, General Manger, Built, says the event is a way to boost industry ties and support at-risk youth. “Aside from being one of the most fun days on the event calendar, the Brisbane Regatta not only strengthens ties with colleagues and industry peers but also underscores Built’s commitment to social impact by raising funds for homeless youth — an effort that extends well beyond business interests to contribute positively to the community. Lots of laughs are had, and a little competition, but most importantly, funds are raised to help curb the youth housing crisis.”  

“We love seeing the industry unite in this fantastic environment and sail together to create more beds for local youth.”

Kane returns as Supporting Partner in 2025. “The Regatta is a great way to take a break from the desk, spend a day on the water and support a fantastic cause … a bit of light-hearted competition is always entertaining too!” says Queensland General Manager, Phil Mayze. “It’s important that we get behind great causes like the Property Industry Foundation. Any opportunity to play our small part in raising and maintaining awareness, as well as much needed funds to help many homeless youths in Australia, is important to take.”

Supporting Partner SHAPE is once again proud to be involved with an event that unites the property and construction industry in supporting Queensland’s most vulnerable youth. Says David Wood, General Manager: “The thing I enjoy most about the Brisbane Charity Regatta is that our industry comes together for a special day to raise money for a super important charity. Every young person deserves a safe place to stay.”

Supporting Partner, Urbis is also proud to be sailing for homeless youth for another year. “The thing I enjoy the most about the Brisbane Charity Regatta is that it's rare that you get an opportunity to be given a day out to undertake an activity in the sun, on the water and among clients and friends in a relaxed environment, while at the same time, raising money for kids at need,” says Ben Slack, Regional Director, Urbis, himself a passionate sailor. 

oOh!Media has once again joined the regatta as Advertising Partner. Peter Reynolds, Commercial Director – QLD, is a repeat attendee of the event. “The Regatta is a standout event for oOh!, bringing together the property and construction industries to make a real difference for homeless youth … it’s always a special day on the water, working together to create opportunities for young people in need.”

“Every young person deserves a safe place to call home. Whether we're sailing, golfing, cycling, or quizzing, these events bring our industry together with a shared purpose - to create real change. We believe in taking action and using our platform to amplify awareness and raise critical funds that help make a difference where it matters most.”
