“We rise by lifting others.”
Get involved
It really does take a village, and helping us is ultimately helping the community. Here at Seeds, we pride ourselves on utilizing the helping hands of our communities. It is through this mutual support of each other that we all are able to succeed and support more people.
Benefits of Helping Others
A Sense of Purpose
Helping others enhances our sense of identity and purpose. It makes us feel more empowered, rewarded and fulfilled in our lives.
A Sense of Belonging
Helping others helps us to make new friends and connect more with our communities. By doing this we help reduce a sense of loneliness and isolation.
A Sense of Renewal
Helping others teaches us to help ourselves. This is a special way to help us feel more like ourselves again.
It Feels Good
Helping others can increase happiness through promoting physiological changes in the brain. This may come from either being more socially or physically active.
If you wish to support Seeds, we gratefully accept help through working directly with one of our programs sharing your knowledge with people, and/or supporting a program we offer.
