Sponsoring the Rip Curl Community Cup
We love a feel-good, fun-filled event, which is why Hello Mellow stepped onto the lush greens of the RACV Golf Course this month as a proud gold sponsor of the Rip Curl Community Cup Golf Day—a fantastic day for an even better cause.
Now in its ninth year, the Rip Curl Community Cup has become a cornerstone event for the Surf Coast, uniting local businesses and the wider community to raise funds for families in need. This year’s event was no exception, with proceeds directed to support a family facing the significant challenges of caring for their eldest son, who lives with cerebral palsy.
This beautiful family requires specialised equipment and round-the-clock care to navigate daily life. Thanks to the funds raised, they’re one step closer to securing a wheelchair-accessible vehicle—an essential resource that will profoundly improve their everyday lives.
Why We Got Involved in the Rip Curl Community Cup
For us, supporting this event wasn’t just about ticking the “community involvement” box. It was about contributing to something bigger—making a tangible difference for a family that truly needs it. As a gold sponsor, we were honoured to play a part in the fundraising efforts, helping move the needle closer to the organisers’ goal.
This event also gave us the chance to connect with other local businesses and community members who share our passion for giving back. There’s something inspiring about seeing the collective power of people coming together for a shared purpose.
Having Fun Along The Way
Vibes were high, wallets were out and the sun was shining – it made for a fantastic, fun-filled fundraising event – that’s a lot of ‘f’s’ in there and a lot of f’s given for a greater cause.
The Hello Mellow golf team embraced the spirit with some seriously bright tops (think neon dream) and a determination to get the ball off the tee—some of us with more success than others. From early-morning tee-offs to evening celebrations, the day was packed with laughs, questionable golf cart driving, some golf balls hit, and a shared commitment to making a difference.
Looking Ahead
We were stoked to showcase our support while soaking up the vibrant atmosphere of an event that reminds us why we love being part of this incredible Surf Coast community.
A huge thank you to Rip Curl for organising another outstanding Community Cup and for creating opportunities for businesses like ours to contribute to meaningful causes. We’re already counting down the days to next year’s event and are eager to find even more ways to give back to the people and places that make our community special.
Here’s to more good vibes, great causes, and even brighter golf tops next year!
