In 2013 we initiated The Dream Trust, the charitable arm of ENGEO.

It has raised around $250,000 since its inception and supports charitable organisations across New Zealand. It was established by the employees at ENGEO out of their desire to give back to the communities that have helped us grow. The Dream Trust is funded directly by the individual ENGEO employees, ENGEO itself, and anyone else who would like to support the organisation along the way. The Dream Trust isn’t just about raising funds, the staff at ENGEO love to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty while helping the community wherever we are needed.

“Being part of the ENGEO Dream Trust is incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. We set up the Dream Trust to give back to the communities in which we are fortunate enough to prosper, and seeing this in action is truly humbling. It is a privilege to work with amazing people making a difference locally, nationally and internationally.”
Guy Cassidy, ENGEO

“Having such a great charitable arm of ENGEO makes me proud to be an employee. WE are able to help such worthy causes and engage our whole company to support our local communities.”
Vaughan O’Brien, ENGEO

Dropping off the rugby balls and stationary at the four schools around Manukau was really fun and highly gratifying, the kids were hard case and really appreciative.”
Jacob Cornall, ENGEO

“Just wanted to extend our thanks and appreciation to you for visiting and helping out last weekend on The Old Ghost Road. Hopefully you had a good ride out and you’re not too tired starting the working week.”
Phil Rossiter- Chairman, Mokihinui-Lyell Backcountry Trust (Old Ghost Road)

I am writing in appreciation and gratitude for the generous donation from ENGEO Dream Trust towards our Christmas gifts. We distributed them in the days leading up to Christmas. AS a not for profit organisation we rely on support of our local community to help us support our families to thrive. Thanks to you, we can help to make this time of year special and memorable.
Deirdre Ryan, Manager, Community Wellbeing, North Canterbury Trust
