      Hello

      Intro is good, after that mention some of the foundational values- you can use a small diagram.
      Why they are called foundational part is fine, keep it concise.
      In the next part about the two values, mention examples in both cases.
      Also try to link both values to current affairs especially their role in pandemic and its management.
      A concluding statement would also be good.
      Keep writing. 🙂

      Content is fine but present it better. You can give separate subheading to explain why these values are called foundational.
      Explanation about integrity and empathy is fine.
      Use some examples in both cases.
      In empathy, you can also mention about its role in delivering services to the vulnerable and weaker section, can link it with current affairs by mentioning usefulness of these values in the pandemic.
      Keep writing. 🙂
