Guided by our values
Our approach to relief and development is shaped by six core values. These guide how we serve, how we partner, and how we work alongside communities.
- Church-Based
- Partnering with local churches within needy communities throughout the world in order to assist them in meeting the specific needs of their communities.
- Holistic
- Attending to the needs of the whole person: social, physical, emotional, and spiritual.
- People-Centred
- Working alongside the people of the communities in which we work, bringing aid and personal care into towns, villages, and homes.
- Impartial
- Meeting the needs of people regardless of their race, gender, age, or religion.
- Grassroots
- Meeting basic needs at the community level, using simple technology that is easy to replicate and maintain.
- Building Self-Reliance
- Aiming to build the self-reliance and dignity of those involved.
