We are rooted in three core values:

• Kapwa: This is the recognition of a shared identity, an inner self shared with others.

• Pakiramdam: This translates to “shared perception” or “shared inner perception.” It is a sensitivity to or an attunement with others (kapwahan).

• Kagandahang-loob: This guides a person towards authentic acts of goodness and generosity; towards a nurturing that has its origin in genuine empathy.
