Connection gives us meaning.
We cannot be supportive and fulfill our mission without connection. Strong relationships are the foundation of our work, and we will strive to ensure that others feel heard, seen, and valued.
Do it with enthusiasm!
Whatever you do, do it with enthusiasm. Be excited about the life you live, the work you do, and the people you get to work with and support.
Collaboration is great for kids and good for the world.
Working with others is how we succeed. Collaboration brings together new ideas, opportunities, and improvements to the work that we’re already doing.
Do what’s right, even when it’s hard
We are committed to living and operating by our values. Integrity is a choice. We will choose to do what is right over what is convenient or comfortable.
Be brave and lead by example.
We will be brave and break new ground. We will be humble, honest, optimistic, and supportive. We will lead by example and
strive to inspire others while remaining focused on our mission.
Be kind.
Be kind, both to yourself and others. Practice compassion, be a friend and be generous with what you have. Your kindness improves the lives of others, which improves your own life too.
Take responsibility.
Accountability means that we take responsibility for our work and ourselves. We will rely on science, data, and our wealth of experience and knowledge to achieve our goals. We can’t guarantee that we’ll always get it right, but we can promise that we will be accountable.
