   of what we do: Working to make giving simpler and fairer for everyone because

   which is non-partisan, non-discriminatory, politically neutral and
   even-handed.
   
   
 * Transparent: We will communicate with and listen to our stakeholders/
   beneficiaries and we are wise in our use of funds and will be clear about our
   actions, intentions and expectations.
