Rose Charities

MISSION STATEMENT Through innovative, self-sustaining projects and partnerships, Rose Charities supports communities to improve quality of life. We do this within a framework of volunteerism that places emphasis on results. By linking people and working together we all benefit. The Rose Charities international network of independent organizations are not-for-profit secular and non-political |
We are a group of independent organisations based in several countries. We are all non-political, non- profit, secular and linked by a common
aim - to rehabilitate people to a better, more productive life.
Founded by aid workers who were disillusioned by the waste and bureaucracy often seen in international aid, we started in Cambodia in
1998. The aim was to deliver effective, sustainable programmes directly to those in need, with minimal bureaucracy, and with transparency
at every stage.
Working with people of different ethnicities and cultures, we try not to dictate our own agendas and values, but to listen, and help them find
their own solutions.
We are run by volunteers, so administration costs are kept to a bare minimum, with 98% of donations going directly to support our work.
