in everything we do
we embody these core values
At One Day’s Wages, our core values are guiding principles that inform our operations from our thorough grant vetting process, to how we post on social media, to how we engage with our partners on the ground. As a supporter of our grassroots movement, we believe you deserve to know what drives our work. And we invite you to consider these guiding principles in every simple act of generosity–at One Day’s Wages and beyond.
DIGNITY
We believe that every single human being matters, and that how we tell stories matters. Elevating the core dignity of all people is based on a simple yet challenging act of empathy.

Localization
We believe that local leaders are the ones best equipped to identify needs and implement solutions within their communities. We choose to come alongside them so they are empowered to do their work.

MUTUALITY
Whether it’s donors, partners, volunteers, or people in the communities where we work: this is our collective story. We believe that our work is not just transactional but relational and we have much to both share and learn.
