Purpose & Structure

Charitable Purpose

Methodist Social Service's vision requires us to empower communities through empowerment, connection, and education. Our services and programmes embrace our core values of manaakitanga, arohatanga and kotahitanga. These inform what we do now and how we respond to new opportunities to do good. Our commitment to social justice informs our approach to enhancing the fullness of people's lives and promoting their empowerment meaning that poverty in all its forms falls within our ambit. Thus, we speak of the vulnerable, rather than simply the poor and apply Wesley's imperative to the broad range of opportunities to do good that are presented to us.
