Your Support is Needed Now More Than Ever!
We are at a turning point in the landscape of global and local aid. Internationally, the closure of USAID programs and shrinking humanitarian funding have placed millions at heightened risk. Nationally, federal reductions are making it even harder for families to access fresh, healthy food. Together, we can equip families and communities with the tools they need to plant seeds of hope and resilience.
We are stepping up as others are stepping back. With your support we are helping fill the immense gaps left by shrinking aid. We are finding ways to do more with less so that we can support more families with fresh food access. In 2025, we worked with 78 direct partners in 22 countries to provide over 1.8 million packets of seed! A new high for our organization!
Together we can show what compassion and community can accomplish. Learn how you can help below.

Support our Work
Women Empower their Communities
Empowered woman can empower an entire community. The UN estimates that for every $1 a woman earns, 90 cents goes back into her family, creating upward mobility that breaks the cycle of poverty. By working with women’s groups, we help women build food security whilst producing income for their families.
Powering Community Gardens in the US
38 million people in the US are food insecure. Charitable community gardens can change that. Community gardens promote food literacy and increase access to healthy, nutritious food for families in need across the country.
Crisis Recovery for Refugees and IDPs
Vegetable growing programs can provide an enduring, stabilizing element in crisis recovery. Post-crisis food markets can feature wild shortages and surpluses, price spikes and crashes, and food-quality concerns. Vegetable production can provide long term resilience and stability.
Seeds for School Gardens
School gardens grow vegetables and also grow future leaders to counter hunger and poverty in their communities. In many places, a garden-supported school lunch is the only healthy meal of the day and motivates parents to keep their kids in school.
