ABS-CBN Bayan Foundation anchors its institutional values on the six principles of Equity, Truth, Harmony, Integrity, Compassion and Stewardship or ETHICS. These six principles should be lived on a day to day basis in the policies, procedures and practices of all Bayan personnel. They should be internalized in the hearts and minds of everyone but externalized in their acts and deeds. All must be conscious that values are not idealized concepts but a way of life. Everyone must be a role model, an exemplar of there six values.

Equity—being partial to disadvantaged communities and endeavoring to improve their social and economic well being.

Truth—openness to all possibilities but the discernment to choose the best option according to what is good for all.

Harmony—the ability to function as one synergistic organization where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Integrity—conducting ourselves professionally.

Compassion—love for the communities we serve as cornucopias nourishers of their social, economic, and spiritual lives.

Stewardship—being totally accountable and responsible for the resources and duties entrusted to us.
