Sponsorships and partnerships program
Sponsorship
Rosebery recognises that supporting the communities in which we operate is critical to achieving our vision of becoming a great resources company. As part of this commitment, one of our sustainability objectives is to ensure that these communities receive real benefit from our operations.
The community Sponsorship Program is one way that Rosebery can ensure this. However, in order for this to be effective, it is essential that any sponsorship invested is used for projects that assist with the social, cultural and economic development of the region.
About community sponsorship
Community sponsorship refers to in kind or funding assistance for projects or activities that benefit the community.
Partnership sponsorship refers to support for projects and activities that align with our strategic objectives and values.
The site Community Fund addresses local charitable requests that may not meet the requirements of Rosebery mine sponsorship but still align with our vision and values. Monies for the Community Fund are raised by Rosebery employees.
