We see integrity as being authentic, honest, and demonstrating uncompromising adherence to strong moral, and universal ethical guidelines in all our actions and activities.

Our principles, policies, and ethical governance practices are based on the knowledge that accountability and transparency builds trust and confidence for our stakeholders and beneficiaries.

We work to ensure that all our actions and impacts are conscious, informed, and that we maintain our commitments to reforming, reusing, repurposing, recycling, and carbon offsetting.  

Our purpose compels us to remain impartial and objective. This requires focus on our goals and outcomes, rather than being influenced by obstacles, or political, and religious agenda.    

All our work, including every  one of our projects and innovations are intentionally, and meticulously,  aligned with at least one, and in some instances many of the Sustainable Development Goals.   

We believe every single person has a duty of care towards humankind, and the environment. We strive to give back more than we take, and to heal where we have caused harm; whether intentionally or not.

We can be different and still exist together as one. We see tolerance as an attitude of acceptance, and sincere seeking to understand others, regardless of our own opinions, biases or beliefs.

Seek first to  understand each other as a foundation for building strong connections, and for creating positive transformation, openness to new ideas and people, and cognitive flexibility.   

“Ubuntu ”, the African principle of “Kindness to Humanity”, for us means sharing values through a deep sense of connection, and active participation in the betterment of life for all.  

Our strategic objective is to use our feeding to start the dialogue about exploiting education and skills-training to change the circumstances of those living in poverty.

Our model is holistic in the true sense, and we consider all aspects of empowerment, including providing psychosocial support alongside training to heal trauma and ensure our impacts are long lasting.

We believe in the principle of circularity, and we look for opportunity at every step of our work, to educate, heal, mentor, and help grow as a means to resolving social challenges. We use science and business strategies as a foundation for innovation.

The world does not need more charity, it needs understanding, better alignment, and intentional collaboration.

Everything The Dandelion Philosophy does starts with the understanding that once we have fed a hungry person, we can begin the dialogue with them about change, and healing the harmful influences that have shaped their experience of the world for too long.
