AT SEED EFFECT WE believe
Refuge isn’t meant to be the end goal. Restoration is.
Current solutions are short-term and unsustainable, creating dependency and trapping families in a perpetual cycle of poverty. But we have a long-term solution that is sustainable and dignifying.
Over 110 million people have been forced to flee their homes.
The world is facing an unprecedented global refugee crisis.
Unfortunately, over 80% of refugee crises last 10 years or more. While aid and emergency support are needed at first, in the long term, these solutions are unsustainable, creating dependency, and trapping families in a perpetual cycle of poverty.
God is using you to transform lives through our holistic economic development strategy.
Together, through our Christ-centered, savings-led microfinance program, we are empowering refugees and those living in material poverty to provide for their families with dignity.
Hope starts with a simple green box.
The materials included in our secure metal box, combined with the long-term guidance of our Indigenous staff, promote holistic poverty alleviation.
“I am here alone with my children but coming to join a savings group like this takes away the stress and encourages me to forget the pain. I believe it is not good to beg. God has given me hands and brain to think. I use my hands to make what I need to be independent. God has helped me to trust Him and I am really blessed by the group I’m in.
Seed Effect’s program has been so helpful to me because I have been able to access a loan to improve my business. Being in the group has helped me and my family to create and keep good relationships. The Bible study has transformed my life into a better one. I am now more familiar with the Word of God and I have learned to stay in peace with my neighbors.”
