Our Vision
At Asal Charities, we envision a world where no one is left without a home, healthcare, or the dignity of human connection. We strive to create a compassionate society where every individual facing homelessness or poverty is empowered with the resources, support, and opportunities they need to thrive.
Always Open
We believe in the power of great ideas and that these ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, at any time.
Listen, Act, Learn. Repeat.
We continually experiment. We fail quickly and productively. We use data and feedback to guide our course.
Never Settle
We have an obligation to question the rules, change them for the better, raise the bar, play a different game, and play it better than anyone thinks is possible.
Our Mission
Asal Charities is a Minnesota-based organization whose mission is to provide human connection, housing support and health care to those who are unhoused or experiencing poverty. With an open heart, we compassionately accept each individual as they are and work alongside them to advocate for their immediate physical, emotional, and social needs while affirming our shared humanity.
Our Values
- We work as partners with our direct team members and with other departments to reach Asal Charity’s goals.
- We work as partners with outside individuals (donors, volunteers) and organizations to reach Asal Charity’s goals.
- We treat others (those we serve, those we work with, those who support us, and those we do business with) and ourselves with kindness and care.
- We celebrate human diversity. We accept and affirm individuals, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender, age, disability, or socioeconomic status.
- We exist to serve clients and constituents (internal and external). In providing service, we seek to understand and build on everyone’s strengths and assets. We listen and learn.
