Our Core Values

COMMUNITY IS OUR COMPASS

We believe communities are best positioned to articulate and effectively respond to today's challenges. As a committed partner, we seek to transform the traditional funder/grantee relationship, authentically anchoring our work in community knowledge and expertise.

WE LISTEN

We listen to agents and agencies of change, to our donors and to each other with humility, knowing our most impactful work is informed by collaboration, diverse perspectives and many voices.

WE INNOVATE AND LEARN

We address today’s challenges, and continually evolve to meet the problems and opportunities of an unseen future. To do this, we take risks, embrace innovation and commit to learning from both mistakes and successes.

WE COMMIT TO EQUITY

Strengthened by a deeper understanding of the many facets of identity, we seek to dismantle the belief in and power structures that support a hierarchy of human value. To do this, we lift up values and voices of equity and justice in everything we do.

WE NURTURE PHILANTHROPY

We nurture a dynamic giving community. In trusted partnership, we support our donors to express their generosity, growing community-based resources to improve lives for generations to come.
