Community Involvement
Golding recognises we are part of the communities in which we work and live. We take pleasure in sharing our success by supporting these communities as well as national fund raising initiatives.
Mt Perry Truck Pull
Golding are proud sponsors of the annual Dump Truck Pull held at Mt Perry. It raises funds for the Youth Focus charity organisation which assists with suicide prevention for at-risk youths. Golding donates the 90 tonne dump truck and organises the event which benefits not only the youth in Mt Perry, Gin Gin and Bundaberg but is helping these communities to become suicide safer. 
Relay for Life Golding is a regular participant in this charity walk and run for the Queensland Cancer Fund.
Shave for a Cure Golding employees often go bald and colourful for this well-known fundraiser for the Leukaemia Foundation.
Red Frogs Golding gladly supports the Red Frogs and identifies them as leaders in community support of the youth and future of Australia. The Red Frogs take a hands-on approach and are pro-active in assisting youth in periods of life change and times of crisis. It is with pride that Golding has supported the Red Frogs in the past and has become positively involved in education and awareness campaigns.
Gladstone Community Support
Golding's founder Cyril Golding always maintained close links with his community, and new owners CHAMP Private Equity will continue that proud tradition.

Golding is a staunch supporter of the festival having provided all courtesy cars for the festival for many years. We also sponsor festival queen entrants, talent quests and music concerts.
