Rony S. Delgarde is a humanitarian relief expect, social entrepreneur, and award-winning founder and President of Global Paint for Charity, Inc., the first sustainable paint waste management and largest provider of Latex paint in the world. Rony’s original vision when he arrived in Miami a decade ago was to help his community, later discovered there was a tremendous supply of unused paint that would otherwise end up in the waste stream, and he knew there is a larger demand for that paint in third world countries. In March 2010, Rony founded The Global Paint for Charity, Inc. (GPC), whose mission is to recycle leftover paint to change lives and transform underserved communities worldwide. Today he has shipped more than 200,000 gallons of paint to 34 different countries in Africa, Central America, the Caribbean — and 40 cities in the United States. The distributed paint has a market value of $6.5 million which made it one of the largest donations of Foreign Aid to the developing countries. For many typical entrepreneurs, identifying large supply and large demand means BIG dollar signs. But Rony isn’t a typical entrepreneur. Instead, he realized that the good he could do vastly outweighed any amount of money he could make. By every metric, Global Paint for Charity has been an incredible success.
Rony’s selflessness story has featured on CNN and he has received dozens of awards, state proclamations and citations for his work, including the National ENERGY GLOBE Award, one of the most prestigious environmental awards in the world. Rony earned a Master and Bachelor of Business Administration (MBA, BS).
When he is not working for Global Paint for Charity, Rony is volunteering and mentoring aspiring entrepreneurs and startups on how to build successful businesses that make a positive impact. Regardless of what your ambitions are – nonprofit, technology, finance, and so on – Rony’s remarkable story and passion to help others is an example you should take to heart."
A forward-thinking, hands-on, Energetic, charm, passionate and well-rounded leader.
