Our Values
Our Values Guide Everything We Do
Many organizations provide aid, but too often transparency comes at the cost of privacy, or visibility outweighs respect. Novena was created to ensure that donors clearly understand where support goes, while individuals and families are helped without exploitation or loss of dignity.
Dignity First
Every person we serve is treated with respect and privacy.
Transparency
Donors see exactly where their support goes.
Compassion
We meet people where they are, without judgment.
