# The Importance of Values in Education
Through my work with EVA Helpful Foundation, I've learned that technical skills alone aren't enough. Values shape who we become.
## Core Values We Teach
- **Respect**: For oneself and others
- **Empathy**: Understanding different perspectives
- **Gratitude**: Appreciating what we have
- **Integrity**: Doing the right thing
## Impact on Youth
Teaching these values in schools has shown remarkable results in student behavior, academic performance, and personal development.
## The Tech Connection
As technologists, we have a responsibility to build tools and systems that reflect these values. Technology should empower, not divide.
