We help people learn social values through nature as a teaching medium. Social values like growing a strong foundation, being a force for good, collaboration while maintaining individuality, life-giving leadership, and so on. We find that these values are shared by both man (social) and nature (ecological). For example, ‘fruitfulness’ is a common value and purpose in both nature and humans. And just as ‘diversity’ makes a natural ecosystem resilient, so does it foster better human societies. In building that understanding, we hope that people may be inspired by the goodness of nature to bring about the goodness of humanity.
Good Stewards is the first to conduct a programme like this. To be what we advocate – transforming society for good – we run it as a social enterprise. That means while we’re doing what we love, we include underprivileged brothers and sisters in the program. Also, any profits go to them after paying ourselves a modest salary.

We include the underprivileged as part of our work. And we do this as our customers join our programs, because part of the fees go to subsidising our work with them. We do not wait till our salaries are paid to bless the underprivileged as we do it side-by-side with our work for paying customers.Here’s how:
We are keen to share the blessings with the following underprivileged folks:
– Orphans
– Children of single parents, especially mothers
– People from troubled backgrounds
– Refugees
Because we believe in effecting lasting change, we choose to work with organisations already working with the underprivileged. This way, we can complement the good work they are already doing.
