WELCOME TO KEYSTONE TRUST FOR OVER 20 YEARS KEYSTONE TRUST HAS PROVIDED SUPPORT FOR COMMITTED HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FROM CHALLENGING CIRCUMSTANCES TO UNDERTAKE PROPERTY RELATED TERTIARY STUDY.

LIFTING TO A NEW LEVEL

SUPPORTING TOMORROW’S PROPERTY LEADERS

We have invested considerable time into our future direction and how we will achieve our strategic objectives. We value the commitment made by our current industry partners and supporters, and now seek more partners to join us to support the young property stars of tomorrow.

Over those years we have never lost sight of our purpose, which is to provide an open door for our students, support them through their tertiary journey and assist them as they go on to achieve their dream careers in property. By taking a stake in their future success, we have realised many opportunities to change lives and equip people for a bright future in the world of property. As a charitable trust, our funding comes from the generosity of our sponsors, assistance from supporters and our wellmanaged investments. We have now assisted over 120 students and awarded over $1.2 million of scholarship funding.

Each year we receive applications from many more deserving students than we can currently fund. As a result, our vision is to significantly increase the number of students we are able to support.

“Our industry needs new, high calibre recruits who will benefit and grow from the support Keystone provides. Our scholarship programme needs to grow to deliver the highest quality graduates into great property sector careers. To achieve our goals, we need to find new supporters and partners to help realise our vision.” Victoria McArthur, General Manager Keystone Trust

STRONG FOUNDATIONS Keystone Trust was built on the legacy of Graeme Bringans, a Kiwi property developer who, throughout his career, had been a strong advocate of promoting opportunities for young people to enter the property industry particularly those whose family, financial or other circumstances were such that their paths might be blocked. His dream was to establish a trust dedicated to helping such young people find their pathways into one of the many aspects of the industry.

FACTS & FIGURES

Graeme died suddenly at the age of 48 and, upon his death, his widow Binty and a group of close friends and colleagues resolved to make his dream a reality. The Graeme Bringans Property Education Trust was created by Trust Deed on 25th October 1994. Together, the founding Trustees raised the capital and established the structures to allow the Trust to offer scholarships to students in a wide range of property related disciplines. Later renamed the Keystone New Zealand Property Education Trust, the scholarship programme has gained significant industry support and student take-up.

OUR STUDENTS ARE AT THE HEART OF WHAT WE DO Keystone Trust offers New Zealandâ€™s only property-focused scholarships that include the opportunities of networking, mentoring and connecting promising talent with the best in the property industry. As our brand represents, we are the key that locks together our stakeholders, students, sponsors and industry partners. At Keystone, financial sponsorship is just one part of the equation - the benefits for students and sponsors are so much more.

A BRIGHT FUTURE For 21 years Keystone Trust has been the backbone for selecting promising new talent from challenged backgrounds to become part of the property industry. We have built up a solid investment base that in time will assist with supporting our students - but, like you, we always strive for more, better and bigger. As we move into a new decade, we are now expanding our programme delivery in order to support many more talented property students. Our Trustees have taken the steps toward lifting Keystone to the next level in order to meet our objective of vastly increasing the number of students that we are able to support.

SUPPORTING Keystone Trust links sponsors, stakeholders, students, educators and industry partners. Having this central position allows us to engage across the property sector to facilitate advancement through supporting young people on their pathway through their studies and into the industry. Being part of our well recognised Keystone family allows you to leverage off many sponsorship benefits. The philanthropic nature of these packages allows sponsors the opportunity to pay it forward and assist in industry growth. Our sponsor family is made up of a diverse group of successful industry leaders who span the property sector and share a common belief: “As the best in the industry we are here to support students who are promising to be the industry’s future leaders.”

PAULO’S STORY Project Manager ARUP, London UK

“Through Keystone I had exposure to some truly powerful minds that have both shaped and driven my professional growth, but more importantly, and on a personal level, instilled an element of self-confidence as well as a sense of self-worth that I am both capable and deserving of the very best in the broadest of context. I now have an exciting career that also enables me to live a fulfilling life much beyond the expectations I had as a child growing up in an area of Auckland of notably low socioeconomic class.

It is the exposure to industry leaders as mentors that is the real value of Keystone, which now 20 years from its conception has a legacy of not only connecting students with leaders, but also producing the next tranche of leaders who implicitly, and explicitly through the Trust, continue this invaluable mentoring process. “ Keystone Study Award 2007

As an engineering student it can be easy to get lost in textbooks or caught up on the calculator. However, the opportunity to step back and take a look at the real world application of our studies is immeasurable. Thank you very much to all who contributed to this opportunity.” Sam, Keystone Study Award 2014.

visits prove that there is a purpose of the many hours spent completing assignments and studying for tests. The hands on experience and direct interaction with project managers and owners of the local property projects widened my scope of possibilities and deepened my interest in the engineering practise.

JAMES’S STORY Property and Commerce student University of Auckland

“I definitely think I would have been overwhelmed with the transition between school and university, if it had not been for the support of the Keystone family, particularly my buddy, who really helped me settle into university. With the buddies, we are paired up with fellow students studying towards the same degree as we

are, but a few years deeper into their degree, who give tips on approaching university and the course content, all in all, making the transition to university an easier adjustment. The benefits of a Keystone Scholarship are unnumbered; it truly is an amazing opportunity that cannot be missed.“ Keystone Study Award 2015

With your help we can grow our programme and create a reliable and enduring income stream to support future students through their property tertiary studies.

AARON’S STORY

Construction student majoring in Quantity Surveying Massey University “The support and contacts offered by Keystone through work experience, site visits and networking events, is truly invaluable. Many scholarships deposit the money and you rarely hear from them again. At Keystone, you always feel as though you have someone to talk to and receive opportunities that other students would dream of. The financial stresses of university have been

considerably reduced for me. This has passed over to my sports, and has allowed me to continue athletics at a high level, whilst retaining good grades at university. Keystone is very supportive toward both my studies and my sporting endeavours, which gives me confidence when tackling these areas of my life.” Keystone Study Award 2015

SAMANTHA’S STORY Engineering student University of Canterbury

“My favourite part about the Keystone Trust is the family which I am now a part of. It’s amazing being a part of a group that share the same passion of bettering our communities through our drive in the property industry. For this reason, I have grown really close with a few of the current students, socialising with them outside the Keystone events. These friendships are invaluable.

within the property industry through events which Keystone organise is also fantastic as I am able to talk to the current and future leaders of the property sector. This not only broadens my knowledge of other areas of property from those currently at university, but also by those who have been in the field for years whom are more than happy share their expertise and opportunities.”
