Values
“You don’t get in life what you want, you get in life who you are” – Les Brown
- People should be willingly involved in a wide range of development activities, as agents and beneficiaries of development. Nothing is greater than the power of people to effect change on their own behalf.
- Participation should be to foster and enhance people’s capability to have a role in their society’s development.
- Youth can be powerful drivers for leading their families and communities toward sustainable development.
- Donation, contribution and mentorship must be adequately balance with structures that promote the effort of the recipient and not undermine their interest.
- We respect the interest of donors, members and grantee. At GAid we see those who effect change as true agent of development.
