After due consideration the Trustees agreed to begin a process that would wind up the Foundation’s affairs and ultimately close the company and charity.
This process is currently ongoing, and it is envisaged that the VSB Foundation will be formally closed in the latter part of 2025.
The Trustees would wish to thank all those organisations, groups and individuals who have been supported by the Foundation, it has been an immense privilege to have played a small supporting role in work and interventions that seek to change people’s lives for the better.
The VSB Foundation was established with a small asset base to support and encourage voluntary participation and activity. The awards and grants made have been modest in comparison to the time, expertise and commitment freely given by the volunteers involved with the projects. As volunteers, their dedication and humility is a constant reminder of the millions of individuals globally who freely give their precious gift of time. Such voluntary action transforms the emotion of hope into practical outcomes, changes realities and provides a vision to a better future. It restores one’s faith in humanity and for that the VSB Foundation is indebted to all those volunteers, past and present, who have been involved with the work of the Foundation.
