HOW TO HELP
With a modest donation, groups can sponsor an entire box of seed to
reach a malnourished population somewhere in the world. One box grows
5 tons of food! Commercial vegetable seed producers in Iowa may be able
to grow seed for the project. Individuals, groups, and vegetable producers
should contact them for more information.
Participants in the Des Moines Area Hunger Hike support Seed Programs
International as it has been one of the recipients of the funds raised by the
Hike.
