Our Values

WE BELIEVE THAT EVERY YOUNG PERSON MATTERS

We believe that every young person deserves a chance and has the potential to better themselves and their circumstances to create hope for their future.

WE RELENTLESSLY PURSUE STRENGTHS AND POSSIBILITY

We see strengths and possibility where others see deficits and risk.

We believe that every young person has unique strengths that when affirmed and nurtured will lead to success.

WE BUILD A CONNECTION BETWEEN YOUNG PEOPLE AND THEIR COMMUNITY

We believe that connecting young people in a positive way with their community is key.

• By volunteering, youth become contributors and see their value to others, and the community sees young people in a positive light.
• By building awareness and engaging community as supporters of youth who are facing challenges in their teen years, we are changing perspectives from seeing what’s wrong to what’s strong.

WE FOSTER MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS

We believe that adult volunteers can provide unique support to a young person.

We help young people to develop positive relationships with their family, peers and school.

WE CREATE WIN-WIN PARTNERSHIPS

We value and build meaningful partnerships with donors and organizations who value young people like we do, maximizing our impact together.

We always look for new ways to make a difference. We value best and promising practices as the starting point to develop innovative approaches to support vulnerable youth.

We strive for excellence in everything we do.

We lead the way by capturing and sharing our impact to encourage and inspire others to seek similar approaches.

WE THRIVE IN A HEALTHY TEAM WITH A POSITIVE FAMILY SPIRIT
