4 A Better City leadership team

Ron Vink

Founding Director & Managing Trustee

About 10 years ago Ron retired after a rewarding career in the property and building industry. During his life he had spent time with people of all walks of life and recognised how deeply blessed he had been. As a way to express his gratitude and give back to his community he set up the 4 A Better City Trust. 

His heart is to see the vulnerable people in our community enjoy greater mental, spiritual, social, and economic well being. Ron has committed the rest of his life to this cause. With the help of his amazing team and the wonderful volunteers who work alongside him, he has been thoughtfully rolling out projects that will bit by bit contribute to the fulfillment of the dream.  

Apart from this work he loves spending time with his wonderful wife of 45 years, his three daughters and their families, his friends, and his church community.
