Uplifting individuals and families in vulnerable or disadvantaged situations.
To always be in the community, to engage deeply with the disadvantaged to help them find their strengths, so that they will be enabled to work for their own benefit and the wellbeing of their family, our community and to also help others.
Empathy: Appreciating the disadvantages that people face, and never looking down on anyone
Gaining knowledge from ground connectedness: To always be present for families and all in the community, and to learn from them even as we support them
Working hard: To go beyond the ordinary and spare no effort, so we gain the trust of our beneficiaries and ensure they are supported holistically, in partnership with other agencies
Purposeful and ethical action: To always act in the interests of our beneficiaries and the community, and the natural world, in accordance with principles of personal ethics and good governance
