About

See what makes KeHE Cares a unique force for good in the world.

Our Mission

Serving is care you can see. It begins inside KeHE, supporting the employees whose daily effort makes our work possible. And it extends outward, from local neighborhoods to marginalized communities across the globe. Wherever we serve, the aim is the same: to be with people in their hardship, not just send help from a distance.

Our Why

For people suffering from poverty and abuse and those marginalized and forgotten to experience dignity, grace, justice, and restoration.

Our Values

Wholeness

We pursue wholeness and flourishing in all our endeavors as the ultimate outcome of our work and partnerships.

Dignity

We work to uphold and restore the dignity of those we serve, and partner with organizations that share that same passion. This requires us to get relationally proximate to those who are marginalized and suffering.

Deeply Rooted Partnerships

We are committed to developing strong, healthy, and intentional partnerships. This commitment means we will be actively available and meaningfully connected to our partners.

Catalytic Leadership

We partner with and invest in dynamic, action-oriented, and all-in leaders. This includes our Care partners, KeHE employees, and the leaders we work with in our investment funds and KeHE Leadership Academy.

Employee-Powered Engagement

We engage KeHE employees deeply in our mission, allowing them to contribute to and benefit from our collective journey of serving, generosity, and wholeness.
