SEEDS Core Initiatives:
Work Camp:
During Sunflower Mission’s Work Camps in Vietnam, SEEDS play a crucial role in organizing workshops and completing the construction of our elementary schools.
English Initiative (EI):
English Initiative is a virtual mentorship program where Sunflower Mission’s college scholarship recipients can improve their English speaking and writing skills through one-on-one interactions with SEEDS volunteers. These skills have become crucial in today’s professional world, and English Initiative has been running since SEEDS leaders launched this program in 2018!
Fundraisers:
From selling T-shirts to hosting walks, SEEDS raise money to build additional schools and provide more scholarships to underserved students in Vietnam through various fundraisers throughout the year.
