The Belron Ronnie Lubner Charitable Foundation
Giving back to communities across the world.
The Belron Ronnie Lubner Charitable Foundation (BRLCF) launched in 2020 and is named in honour of former Belron CEO, Ronnie Lubner, who strongly believed in the company’s responsibility to give back to society. The BRLCF (Registered in England and Wales under No. 1186189) is funded by members of Belron’s senior leadership around the world. Since its inception, the BRLCF has donated €9 million to charitable organisations around the world, benefitting 350 charities across six continents.
Vital support in challenging times
Causes supported have included charities that were at the front line of the COVID-19 pandemic and small organisations who struggled with the pandemic’s impact; humanitarian relief supporting those impacted by the war in Ukraine, the flooding in Pakistan and more recently, the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. The Foundation has also established multi-year funding with Afrika Tikkun and the Field Band Foundation.
Supporting young people across the globe
In addition this year, a total of €1.5m in grants has been donated to a number of charitable organisations focusing on supporting organisations who give opportunities to vulnerable young people in different places across the globe.
Following a thorough application and review process the BRLCF is supporting the following oranisations - Girls not Brides, Humans in the loop, Joblinge, Planning for Tomorrow (P4T), SmartStart, Young Roots and Tuyoor Al Amal.
In 2024 and beyond, the Foundation will continue to identify other organisations it can support.
Belron’s roots are firmly established in South Africa and the business has a long standing and deep relationship with Afrika Tikkun.
We want Belron to be one of the most sustainable service companies in the world
