5 VH FIBRE A PROUDLY BEE COMPANY VH Fibre Optics (Pty) Ltd ( VH Fibre ) is a Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) company. The directors, Patrick van Heerden and John van Reenen, proudly announced a 25.1% shareholding acquired by The Building Exciting Education Trust in July VH Fibre Optics (Pty) Ltd has a level 5 BBBEE scorecard. The transaction, which took place in July 2012, was a milestone for the company. This is not just because it is required by law, but because of the work of the Trust which is playing an important role in the country s education system. The Trust is involved in education in underprivileged areas of Johannesburg and Cape Town, affecting the lives of more than children a year. The main focus of the Trust is to give children, many from informal settlements in the school s area, hope that they can aspire to better living standards and to make schools a place where they would like to spend more time. Schools are chosen from the very poorest areas, which typically have little maintenance expenditure allocations. The Trust endeavours to employ unemployed parents of schools as tillers, carpenters, plumbers, electricians and general labourers. It supplies all materials and supervises the upgrading of classrooms, toilets and school grounds. The directors of VH Fibre feel that this is the way BBBEE should be done in South Africa. No one is getting rich, except for the children that the trust invests in. VH Fibre would like to inspire corporate South Africa to use their model of how BBBEE can be done successfully. VH Fibre, as a proudly South African company and a member of corporate South Africa, is proud to achieve this BBBEE status. More importantly, VH Fibre believes that in investing in the future of the country, they are also ensuring the future survival of not just VH Fibre, but corporate South Africa, thus contributing to the long term economic growth and a more secure future for the children of tomorrow.
