Our Approach

These four elements guide how we operate as a foundation—and as people.

Relationships Lead

Everything we do is rooted in close, mutual human connections—with our employees, our partners, and the people we serve.

From Dependence to Dignity

We serve with a “hand up” approach that acknowledges the dignity, independence, and self-worth that every person deserves.

Entrepreneurial Spirit

We intentionally partner with smaller, grass-roots organizations that share our passion for transformational growth and change.

Owners & Donors

Our impact is made possible by every employee of KeHE, whose hard work and success directly funds and fuels the KeHE Cares Foundation.

Our Why

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

Our Reach

As KeHE continues to grow, so does our impact.
