SEEDS - Sudan & Ethiopia Economic Development Solutions

Many people are deeply troubled over the atrocities and hurt that our brothers and sisters in Christ have suffered in Sudan. Clearly, God's children there have endured so much, physically and emotionally --some would say far more than most other nations and people groups.

People are also becoming aware of the horrific hunger issues facing those in Ethiopia -- which also happens to be where many of the Sudanese have migrated to escape the genocide in Sudan.

Many people would like to do something tangible to help. With our Sudan & Ethiopia Economic Development Solutions (SEEDS), you can really make a difference.

SEEDS is a joint initiative of the Global Institute For Transformation (GIFT) -- a cross denominational 501 (c)(3) ministry --and the Southern Sudan Community Association (SSCA), a non-profit organization working with the Sudanese refugees now settled in America. SSCA also works in Sudan and Ethiopia implementing SEEDS solutions.

SEEDS is working with Sudanese in America to help them provide support to their families and friends still back home in Sudan. It's support they recognize as the most impactful solutions available for transforming the unacceptable living conditions in Sudan and Ethiopia.

We're also reaching out to the Christian community to join in this effort -- because the issue is huge, the needs are vast and innovative solutions must reach as many people as possible, as quickly as possible. And Christ's church is capable of addressing these issues.

Through our Sudan & Ethiopia Economic Development Solutions (SEEDS) program, you can show the love of Christ to our hurting brothers and sisters now struggling with horrible waterborne illnesses and the lack of food, income, clothing and education.

Through SEEDS, we'll be providing:

Home water purification system that purifies water for a family of 5 for a year and a half. This incredible solution addresses the fact that 50% of all hospitalizations globally are due to waterborne illnesses. Please examine the before and after water quality brought through the filtration devices we've sent to Sudan & Ethiopia. Click here to see the before and after results of water purification.
Farm irrigation pumps proven to increase farm incomes from $110 on average to $1100.
Tiller support to make the ground more receptive to seeding
Maize grinders to dramatically reduce the time spent hand grinding maize.
Investment in education to provide schooling -- the ultimate solution to lift people out of poverty.
Funds for clothing as the Sudanese and Ethiopian people often lack clothing and shoes.

If you'd like to join us in supporting Sudanese who have borne so much pain as well as the Ethiopians struggling with hunger, please visit our GIFT Shop and make a contribution to the SEEDS initiative.
