“I so admire the work ethic of all the Seed Effect members. And it takes so little to help them along their way that I feel my monthly gift is actually making a difference!

The wonderful photographs and stories shared by many of the people in Uganda who are involved with savings groups bring them to life for me.”

“When I first came across Seed Effect in 2017, I was immediately intrigued given my background in finance.

It has been a blessing to be able to support Seed Effect as they continue to implement a sustainable solution that addresses a generational problem – while most importantly, doing so in a way that spreads the Word of God.”

“As a Christian finance professional who has always had a passion for overcoming poverty in the “hard places,” I was ecstatic to find Seed Effect.

In my opinion, there is no greater organization or mission than this. Seed Effect is making an incredible difference in the lives of thousands of refugees and I couldn’t be more proud to support this incredible life-changing organization!”
