The idea that my neighbor is to be valued as myself is a Christian concept.

Not exclusively.

There are somewhat similar concepts in some other religions, but the statement that you should "love your neighbor as yourself" came from Jesus. Anyway, the charitable works of Christians and Christian churches dwarf those of other religions, let alone those of atheists.
