From the abundance of God's love, we find our call to ministry.
2. We are committed to the poor.
We are called to relieve their suffering and to promote the transformation of their condition of life.
3. We value people.
We regard all people as created and loved by God. We give priority to people before money, structure, and systems.

We are faithful to the purpose for which resources are given and manage them in a manner that brings maximum benefit to the poor.
5. We are partners.
We are members of an international World Vision Partnership that transcends legal, structural, and cultural boundaries.

We are responsive to the life-threatening emergencies where our involvement is needed and appropriate.
