Our Values

Our values are the standards of behaviour we use as a benchmark for ourselves as individuals and for us as an organisation. 

 

Trust

We will be respectful in our dealings with each other and others, such as our donors. 

We will be transparent in our decision making about our grants and donations. We will be consistent in the basis of decisions we make.

We will operate with integrity. We will be honest in all our dealings. We will not be subject to influence or pressure in the decisions we take. We will build trust by the fairness of our decision making.

Impact

We want to make a difference and be courageous in what we do. 

We will put our efforts into the areas where there is the greatest evidence about where we can make a long-term difference to the LGBTIQ+ community. 

We will measure our performance. We will endeavour to continually improve our effectiveness.

Connection

We get to know individual people and connect with them. Through our networking we help build a more cohesive community. 

We acknowledge our history and the possibilities of the future. We want to be a beacon of hope in the LGBTIQ+ community.

We facilitate the engagement and mutual commitment with like-minded friends to current and future LGBTIQ+ community causes, and to celebrate and have fun with our community. 

Legacy

We are committed to building a lasting legacy for the LGBTIQ+ community. We gather individual resources in order to build long term financial sustainability. 

We work towards making a lasting difference to the community and to making LGBTIQ+ organisations self sufficient and resilient. We are committed to building equity and their financial independence.

Valuing Identity

We value our LGBTIQ+ and rainbow identity, our status and difference. We build the prestige of individuals and contribute to their confidence and self-worth.

We care about people and community. We seek to build a patron and supporter base who want to have fun while getting things done for the LGBTIQ+ community.
