Social Responsibility
At KENSTRA, social responsibility isn’t a checkbox, it’s a core duty.
We believe every company has an obligation to contribute positively to the well-being of the communities and environments in which they operate.
By acting with integrity and purpose, we help foster long-term sustainability and build a more equitable and thriving society for all.

Every Sip Counts
West Footscray & Geelong
2025
Change doesn’t always come in grand gestures. Sometimes, it’s in the cup you hold every morning. By swapping single-use for reusable, we’re proving that sustainability can be part of everyday life, and every sip counts.
Empower Her Project
Hoppers Crossing- Victoria 2025
The Empower Her Project is a KENSTRA- led initiative supporting immigrant women entrepreneurs across Wyndham and regional communities. Through local partnerships, we offer mentorship, digital upskilling, and access to essential technology. Our goal is simple: reduce the digital divide and create supportive spaces where women feel confident, connected, and empowered to lead.

One of our key initiatives is our partnership with Wyndham City Council, where together secured a grant to collect, erase and refurbish devices for people in need. This program reflects our commitment to bridging the digital divide, fostering inclusion and ensuring everyone has access to the technology they need to connect, learn and grow.
We are also proud to unite our customers and community through beach clean- ups, reducing e-waste and creating a cleaner, more sustainable future for all.
Social & Community Engagement
Don’t Waste It, Donate It!

We ran a successful e-waste initiative focused on reusing devices and donating them to those less fortunate.
We goals were clear: grow social inclusion; reduce the digital exclusion gap & fight e-waste.
Corporate Beach Cleanup
Eastern Beach - Geelong 2022
KENSTRA takes social responsibility seriously because we believe that all companies have a duty to contribute positively to the well-being of the communities and environments in which they operate, fostering long-term sustainability and creating a more equitable and thriving society for all.
Real Stories of Success
and Inspiration
At Cultura, our ultimate objective in the Humanitarian Settlement Program is to gradually render ourselves out of a job. Thanks to the invaluable collaboration between Kenstra and Telstra, we have been able to equip newly arrived refugee families with iPhones or laptops, which have proven to be instrumental in facilitating their integration into society. These devices have not only enabled them to effectively communicate and bridge language gaps, but also allowed them to effortlessly handle financial transactions, such as banking and bill payments. The integration of technology into their lives has significantly accelerated their journey towards independence. Undoubtedly, English language proficiency is paramount for securing employment and ensuring self-sufficiency. For those who are unable to attend language classes, these laptops have served as invaluable tools in helping them overcome language barriers and enhance their language skills.
