WHAT IS THE INVESTMENT REQUIRED TO MAKE SUCH A DIFFERENCE?

Tertiary Student Sponsor

Sponsorship packages start with an annual commitment of $10,000 plus GST, with funding targeted to support the Study Award recipients.

Your sponsorship would directly impact 38 students studying throughout New Zealand towards their professional qualification. You would ensure they:

• receive an annual scholarship of $5,500 per annum for up to three years,

• have access to a wide range of support from the Keystone Trust team including:

• site visits

• networking and mentoring opportunities

• access to internships

• first year study-buddy

• work experience

• an alumni group

• workshops and events

Those whose degrees are in excess of three years, continue to receive our pastoral support until they graduate.

Alternatively you could step up to a higher level of involvement by supporting a particular student.

KEY SCHOLARSHIP PARTNER (KSP)

For $18,000, plus GST per annum, you could lift your commitment and your involvement by investing in a Key Scholarship Partnership. Recruitment can be time consuming. As a KSP, we take away the hard work and provide you with a short list of phenomenally talented young people who are part way to completing their tertiary study.

In addition to supporting the wider Trust activities as outlined prior ($10,000), we would work with you to create a scholarship tailored to your company’s needs where specific qualifications can be accommodated. Keystone would work with tertiary organisations to promote your scholarship and your company to attract your preferred students. The scholarship would be jointly branded, and we would invite your active participation in the scholarship selection process.

The student would receive a $5,500 scholarship for one year, and of the remaining sum, $3,000 is dedicated to the promotion and management of your scholarship application process and the remainder goes to support the work of the Trust.
