Our story.

Our model is centered around the idea that business is the only sustainable way to fight poverty. We believe God is most honored by us when we honor each other. This idea drives us to value collaboration over charity and empowerment over handouts. We work alongside members of specific communities on projects that they have identified, and we partner with them to accomplish these shared goals.

In alignment with our vision to use business to fight poverty, we have developed two business ventures; SEED Market and SEED Coffee Co. Seed Market is an online store where one can purchase products made in Haiti. Seed Coffee Co. is our very own coffee brand sourced by farmers in Haiti and locally roasted by Vienna Coffee in Maryville, TN. Proceeds from each of these ventures are used to support Seed projects.

We partner with communities through the use of the Participatory Rural Appraisal methodology developed by the World Health Organization, we conduct interviews, facilitate focus groups, and lead community leaders in various exercises over a week-long intensive process. This methodology utilizes the knowledge and expertise of members of the community to determine individual and community needs in terms of education, health and community development to support long term economic sustainability and growth. We then partner with community leaders to evaluate needs and develop an action plan in order to accomplish our unified goals and objectives. This innovative approach focuses on empowering communities to help themselves and only implements projects that can contribute to the good of the community as a whole in a sustainable, holistic way.
