ABOUT US

People living in areas are probably the most disadvantage in South Africa. Rural roads, schools, clinics, water and sanitation leave a lot to be desired. Add to this unemployment, lack of skills, poor cellular and internet connectivity, you have a dire situation. That picture can be depressing but it doesn’t mean nothing can done about it. 

We also know there are many people and organizations that care enough to give a helping hand. We also believe that the good Samaritans don’t always have the right vehicle for their philanthropy to be expressed. 

We aim to avail ourselves to partner with anyone that is willing to help. Even as far government is concerned, we are willing to assist as an implementation agency for where they dire quick and efficient turn around on their programs.

Our focus initial focus will be on making affordable internet connectivity available to the rural communities and schools. We will do this through partnerships with various organisation that can support through funding and expertise.

We invite anyone with a passion for rural development and upliftment to get in touch with to explore avenues for cooperation and partnerships. As a non-profit company, we hugely rely on support and sponsorship to achieve our objectives. We welcome all assistance, big and small. In return, we offer full accountability and transparency about how the funds are deployed. 

So much can be achieved if we work together to find solutions to the problems. Partnerships with like-minded people and organizations will go a long way to the needy and neglected rural communities across the length and breadth of South Africa.

ROSE FOUNDATION

The foundations were first laid in April 1994 after the government withdrew support for the used oil re-refining industry. Previously lubricants were taxed to subsidize the re-refining of used oil back into lubricating oil.When this subsidy was removed, the major lubricant companies operating in South Africa took it upon themselves to help protect the environment. So they formed the ROSE Foundation to prevent the irresponsible dumping and burning of used lubricating oil. ROSE’s primary objective is to collect as much used lubricating oil as possible and to add as much value to this oil within the strictest environmental standards. Our stated objective is to encourage cleaner production before waste reduction and waste minimisation. Failing that we aim to recycle or reprocess used lube oil into economically valuable products.
