Now, in 2026, our 17th year, we’re aiming for our biggest milestone yet: Reaching the $1 million raised milestone for PCHF.
Putt4dough has become one of WA’s most recognised and respected industry charity events. What started as a golf day has grown into a powerful community initiative that brings together technology leaders, businesses, sponsors and supporters to help improve the lives of sick children and families across Western Australia through its support of PCHF.
In 2026, the momentum is only building. Registrations, sponsorships and donations are officially open for putt4dough 2026, with this year’s event set to take place on Tuesday 24 November at Joondalup Resort Golf Course.
"WAITTA’s role has always been about supporting Western Australian innovation, technology and talent and giving back to WA’s community. Putt4dough extends that impact, showing how industry can come together to support those most in need."
- Adj. Professor Anita Ghose, WAITTA Board Director and program sponsor for putt4dough
Together, our community has already raised more than $880,000 for PCHF. This year, we’re aiming to raise another $120,000 and push total fundraising beyond the incredible $1 million mark.
That’s 16 years of industry coming together to create real impact for sick children and families across Western Australia. And we’re not slowing down now.
Putt4dough has become one of the WA tech sector’s most loved and respected community events, bringing together businesses, sponsors, industry leaders and supporters for a day that’s equal parts networking, fun, awareness and fundraising.
The event includes a four-player team golf tournament, followed by an evening dinner, guest speaker, entertainment, awards and charity auction.
It’s competitive on the course, generous off it, and always driven by one thing: backing WA’s sick kids and families when they need it most.
Whether you’re a serious golfer or just there to support the cause, putt4dough is about community first.
Watch: The game-changing rehab robot transforming recovery for WA kids at PCH
Last year, putt4dough raised $80,000 to fund life-like simulation training manikins for Perth Children’s Hospital Foundation, helping clinicians practice critical procedures in a safe environment and improve outcomes for young patients.
This year’s fundraising focus is equally powerful. The 2026 Tech4Sick Kids campaign will help to continue supporting the groundbreaking ZeroG rehabilitation system operating at Perth Children’s Hospital.
ZeroG is the first technology of its kind in an Australian paediatric hospital and represents a major step forward in rehabilitation care for children living with cerebral palsy, serious spinal or brain injuries, and long-term illness.
The $1.2 million system allows children to safely rebuild strength, movement and confidence during rehabilitation using advanced body-weight support technology.
Put simply, this is life-changing tech helping WA kids get back on their feet, and the WA tech community is helping make it possible.
We would love your support this year as a player, sponsor, donor or supporter. Every contribution helps drive meaningful impact for WA sick kids and families.
Businesses can register four-player teams or explore a new range of sponsorship packages designed to help drive even greater impact in 2026.
Many sponsorship tiers include game registrations and offer businesses the opportunity to be recognised as Major, Gold, Silver or Bronze Sponsors during this milestone fundraising year.
If there was ever a year to get involved, this is it.
To register a team, become a sponsor or make a donation, visit the putt4dough website.
The putt4dough team is also planning additional fundraising events throughout 2026, including the Tech4Sick Kids Panel Event in August to be held at NAB headquarters in Perth City.
More events and fundraising opportunities will be shared throughout the year – subscribe to our newsletter to stay in the loop.
Together, we can make 2026, our 17th year, the biggest yet in putt4dough history and help take fundraising beyond $1 million for WA’s sick kids.
