About the project
The Daniel Morcombe Foundation and Murphy Group are teaming up once again for the Build it for the Kids project, committed to keeping kids safe. Following the amazing success of our first project in 2020, we’re excited to bring another stunning charity home to life – from the drawing board, through construction, and all the way to auction day.
The best part? Every single dollar of profit from the home’s sale goes straight to the Daniel Morcombe Foundation. That means more vital work in education, awareness, and support for victims, all aimed at keeping our kids safe from harm. This isn’t just about building a house; it’s about building a safer future together. When you get involved with BIFTK, you’re directly contributing to something truly meaningful, and we’re incredibly thankful for every bit of support!
About the Daniel Morcombe Foundation
The Daniel Morcombe Foundation is dedicated to preventing child abuse. Established in 2005 by Bruce and Denise Morcombe after their son Daniel’s tragic abduction and murder, it’s now a leading Australian child safety organisation. The Foundation’s core mission is to ensure children and young people are safe and can thrive. They achieve this through several key programs and initiatives.
The Build It For The Kids initiative is vital to our fundraising, with all profits directly supporting crucial child safety programs. This helps the Foundation expand and sustain efforts, reaching more families with essential safety information and support.
About the Murphy Group
Founded in 1975, Murphy Group specialises in commercial construction, residential investment, and high-end custom homes. With an intergenerational legacy spanning five decades, Murphy Group is a business synonymous with excellence in the construction industry. Their enduring reputation reflects their unwavering commitment to quality and innovation. Over the years, they’ve built lasting commercial landmarks and family homes of unparalleled quality.
As Sunshine Coast locals, Murphy Group is deeply embedded in the local community. The team began partnering with the Daniel Morcombe Foundation in 2018, supporting the Foundation in different fundraising and awareness campaigns. Coming together for Build It For The Kids in 2020 was more than just a fundraising event; it was two friends coming together in community and collaboration to make a difference.
For Build It For The Kids, Murphy Group is proudly serving as the construction company coordinating the entire project, liaising with trusted partners and suppliers. This involvement is a core element of their broader philanthropic and community engagement efforts.
Partners
We’re incredibly grateful for the amazing partners who make this project possible! Murphy Group is our Lead Project and Construction Partner, guiding the build from start to finish. We also have RM Developments as our Principal Developer and STOOP as our Marketing Partner.
Their generosity and teamwork are what truly bring Build It For The Kids to life. Hand-in-hand, we’re designing, building, promoting, and auctioning a beautiful home, with all profits donated to the Daniel Morcombe Foundation’s crucial mission of Keeping Kids Safe.
