Values

In pursuing these activities, the Foundation prefers activities where the following values are expressed:

  1. Because we have benefited from the truth that lives are most fruitful when lived in the light of God's purposes, we favor activities that are conducted by people who see themselves as living out God's purpose in their lives.

  2. Because entrepreneurship is an expression of God's creative identity, the Foundation will favor those activities that express great creative energy.

  3. Because profit is the soundest assurance of sustainability, the Foundation will support activities that are directed toward making a profit or giving people the capacity to develop profitable enterprises.

  4. Because we cherish God's creation, we favor activities that are environmentally respectful and heal the earth.

  5. Because our goal is the creation of employment opportunities, we will favor activities with the promise of jobs for others and not just improved individual subsistence.
