One Person, One Family, One Community
Seeds of Life International is a non-profit organization comprised of common people from the U.S. and abroad who share a single vision – to see the world changed for people who live in extreme injustice. Over 1 billion people live on less than $10 per day. By the time you finish reading this entry about 11 children, aged 1 day to 5 years, will have died of poverty related issues (this is based on 2015 World Health Organization statistics of 16,000 child deaths per day in the age range of new-born to 5 years)
Awareness of injustice is great, but we want to provide an avenue for the common person to get involved in a very tangible way. The goal: to see people go from awareness to action. Generous minded people really do want to help. And, we want to help them help others by providing a very narrow focus. We are committed to seeing the development of two communities in the northeast of Brazil and a small region in the lower Amazon Basin. We believe radical transformation is possible within one generation through literacy programs, medical aid, clean drinking water, vocational training, and counseling.
We believe whole-heartedly that WE cannot change the world at once, but WE can change the world one person at a time, one family at a time, and one community at a time, all within one generation.
