Tema Foundation
we embrace these principles
To help in a sustainable way, we must inform, enable, and inspire the efforts, ambitions, and strength of spirit in the people we seek to help
It is in working together with others that we can accomplish more than we can alone
Home grown solutions are often the best and most sustainable solutions
The basic needs of humankind are water, food, shelter, health, dignity, peace, joy, and purpose. It is in making it possible for people to acquire, appreciate and benefit from the filling of these basic needs that our success will be measured
Hunger and thirst have physical and spiritual dimensions and a complete humanitarian work must touch the soul as well as the life of the individual
Donations and available resources, whether scarce or plentiful, must be utilized efficiently and purposefully, for maximum benefit to those we serve
The love of our Savior Jesus Christ constrains us to help our fellow man, and is itself the solution to many of mankind’s problems. Our loving and gracious Father in Heaven has a plan and a destiny for Humankind and our ultimate success as Humans depends on working within His purposes and following His ways
