Seeds of Life International is a non-profit organization comprised of common people from the U.S. and abroad who share a single vision - to see the world changed for people who live in extreme injustice.  Over 1 billion people live on less than $10 per day. By the time you finish reading this blog entry about 8 children, aged 1 day to 5 years, will have died of poverty related issues (this is based on 2008 statistics of 25,000 child deaths per day in the age range of new-born to 5 years).

Awareness of injustice is great, but we want to provide an avenue for the common person to get involved in a very tangible way.  The goal: to see people go from awareness to action.

Generous minded people really do want to help.  We want to help them help others by by providing a very narrow focus. We want to see the lives of about 7,000 people living in two slums in the northeast of Brazil radically transformed within one generation by providing education, medical aid, clean drinking water, vocational training, and counseling.

We believe whole heartedly that we cannot change the world, but we can change the world one person at a time, one family at a time, one community at a time, all within one generation.
