Inspired by Christ
CAUSE Canada
follows the example of Christ in speaking out on behalf of the poor. We do this because we feel called by God to do so. Some may suggest that the purchasing of construction materials, the writing of reports, and the carrying out of public health surveys does not constitute true spirituality. We, however, believe that it does. We pray that our identification with Jesus, our concern for justice and the practical demonstration of God’s love in meeting people’s physical needs, will draw people to Christ.

Development Is A Process, Not An End
CAUSE Canada
sees development as being a process, not an end; to develop is to become, not only to have. Development does not necessarily mean industrialization. One of our preferred definitions for development relates to the unfolding of people’s collective imagination In defining not only who they are, but where they want to go. To this end, CAUSE Canada is committed to the challenge of assisting our Southern partners in the establishment and strengthening of their own Non-Government Organization (NGO) communities.

Celebration of Diversity
CAUSE Canada
works with people from all faiths and cultural backgrounds. We celebrate the diversity of humankind while at the same time recognizing the equality and dignity of all peoples. With this in mind, we can all take part in promoting a greater unity and understanding between religion, race and culture.
