In 2015, with the assistance of an external advisor, the Board of Directors of the Luker Foundation reviewed the mission of our organization. The study included an assessment of the Foundation’s performance in its focus lines - Education and Entrepreneurship – and incorporated the line of work with CasaLuker.
As a result of this work, our mission was defined to: “Generate economic and social development through national and/or international alliances, with transformational projects and highly impacting on education and entrepreneurship, empowering individuals, institutions, and communities.”
And our vision: “The Luker Foundation has the capability and knowledge to transform communities, and it is recognized for its significant achievements in education and entrepreneurship.”
Finally, the values of the organization were agreed to as follows:
The Luker Foundation is ethics
Honest in its relationships with others and with itself
Coherent in abiding by its principles
Transparent in its actions
The Luker Foundation is responsible
In the search for excellence
In the austere management of its funds
In the assessment of its results and impacts
The Foundation Luker is respectful
Of the differences and democratic plurality
Of the dignity and rights of our beneficiaries, allies, and collaborators
Of the institutions, regulations, and the law
We are convinced that an educated and entrepreneurial person can transform and generate development for him/herself and for his/her community; our projects in education and entrepreneurship and their results have demonstrated that this challenge has impacted on the lives of many people and changed realities.
