- Make new friends both in their own community at home as well as communities across the world
- Encourage and practice thoughtfulness and helpfulness towards others
- Create an awareness of the importance of home and family
- Build respect for the rights of all people, based on recognition of the worth of each individual
- Emphasize acceptance of individual responsibility as the basis of personal success, community improvement, and group achievement
- Develop important life skills that include self-development, time management, and personal finances
- Recognize the dignity of all useful jobs and opportunities that work towards making society better
- Open pathways to the advancement of international understanding and goodwill towards the whole of humanity
