UK - When Rosco launched #313 Light Relief Yellow Supergel filter in 2003, the hope was that the colour would provide the Light Relief charity with a steady income from its sale for years to come.

Developed with the help of Rick Fisher, co-founder (along with the late Tony Gottelier) of the industry charity which supports lighting designers in difficult times, Light Relief Yellow is a vibrant colour, suitable for raising awareness of the charity.

Since committing to this programme, Rosco has presented Light Relief with an annual donation based on the sales of #313. At PLASA 07, Rosco's president Stan Miller presented Light Relief with a check for $3,172 bringing the total to date over $10,000.

"What has been remarkable about Rosco is the continuing nature of its support for this charity, which is there to provide practical assistance to those in the Lighting Industry who fall on hard times," says Rick Fisher.

"It is wonderful that the charity is supported by such unending contributions and particularly reminds users of Light Relief and Rosco's creative generosity every time the colour is specified."

Stan Miller added, "From the beginning we saw the development of a unique colour as representative of the effort of those supporting this worthwhile effort. We are delighted that this is truly a 'gift that keeps on giving' and we will be back next year and for many years to come."
