Making a financial contribution

The ROTOS Foundation is a registered charity in the Netherlands, KVK Number 77629779. It operates in line with the charity regulations of The Netherlands and other best practice guidelines for charitable organisations.

All the income that the ROTOS Foundation receives is used to support the activities that the Board approves. These must be in line with the ROTOS vision and strategic plan, which are publicly available. An annual report is published which documents these activities and the Foundation accounts.

The Board is very grateful to all those who make a contribution. Without this support the Foundation is not sustainable and will not achieve its potential. For those inclined to assist, there are a number of ways of donating. The ROTOS Foundation has established a PayPal account to facilitate secure transactions.
