About Caritas

Caritas Finland works with collaboration with Caritas Internationalis. Caritas Internationalis reflects the social mission of the Church and the following core values: 
  • Dignity: We see the poor as dignified human beings, not hopeless objects of pity, and we work with them to build a better future for themselves.
  • Justice: We believe you cannot make a gift of something a person should already have by right. We challenge economic, social, political and cultural structures opposed to a just society.
  • Solidarity: We work to enhance solidarity with the poor, seeing the world through their eyes, and recognising the interdependence of humanity.
  • Stewardship: We believe the planet and all its resources are entrusted to humankind and seek to act in an environmentally responsible way as true stewards of creation.

Caritas Finland is a partner organisation of the Finnish Ecumenical Council and a member of EAPN-FIN.
