Our Strategy
The poor often describe poverty in terms of shame, inferiority and hopelessness rather than material needs. These feelings are magnified in the hardest places, where civil war and instability destroy opportunity and relationships.
This dynamic environment requires adaptability, courage and tenacity. But God calls us to love all people, even where it’s chaotic and difficult. And so we are committed to providing hope in these hard places through our 3-pronged approach.
Economic Empowerment
Seed Effect empowers the poor to break the cycle of material poverty through a savings-led or credit-led microfinance strategy tailored for each community we serve. It’s a hand-up, not a handout.
Discipleship
Seed Effect is more than an initiative to help people overcome material poverty—we are about making disciples. Our programs serve as a platform to build relationships that provide us the opportunity to share the gospel and disciple believers.

Education
Our education seminars provide the opportunity for members to share their knowledge and experience as they work through participatory, dialogue-based lessons on a variety of livelihood and business skills.
