For over 20 years Keystone Trust has provided support for committed High School students from challenging circumstances to undertake property related tertiary study.

Leading

Over the years we have never lost sight of our purpose and today Keystone Trust offers New Zealand’s only property-focused scholarships that include opportunities for networking, mentoring and connecting promising talent with the best in the property industry.

Since 2014 the Trustees and management have focused on building stronger stakeholder relations. This has included consultation with sponsors, supporters, students, alumni, tertiary institutes, and the wider property and construction industry. The outcome has seen a significant growth in the Trust with the addition of many new industry sponsor organisations and a significant increase in scholarships on offer.

Also during this time, the Trustees and management have worked together with stakeholders to set the scene for a long term funding plan for the Trust. The outcome is the establishment of the Keystone Foundation with the goal of providing the structure for long term financial independence for the trust.
