Abergeldie has been supporting communities for 30 years. Since the very beginning, we have maintained a policy of giving back to the community, giving 0.1% of revenue back to charitable organisations and volunteering to support communities where we live and work.
We have long standing partnerships that extend for over a decade with key community organisations including Vinnies and Oxfam to help those experiencing poverty and homelessness, WaterAid, to provide clean water and good sanitation to those that need it most, Engineers without Borders to harness the potential of engineering to create an equitable reality for the planet, Beyond Blue and Mates in Construction (NZ) to support mental health.
In Western Sydney, Abergeldie has sponsored the Vinnies Van for almost 20 years. Staff volunteer their time monthly to provide company, support, and food.
Since 2009, Abergeldie has participated in the Vinnies CEO sleepout raising funds and awareness for those experiencing homelessness. In 2023, 1490 CEO’s, Business and Community Leaders participated in the CEO sleepout, raising over $8.9m.¹
Caring for communities is part of our DNA. Across our projects and sites, we adopt procurement strategies that support local and indigenous businesses and create employment opportunities for locals and indigenous people. In recent years, we have also supported local communities, fundraising to support communities affected by flooding and have hosted events to educate the younger generation on the built environment.
