On-Going Projects in United States
Seed the World, Inc. is a Michigan Foundation. The founder, Renu S. Malhotra, thinks of Grand Rapids as her home, where she lived for 35 years. Recently, she moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, to be near family. One of the goals of Seed the World is to bring the wisdom of her native land of India to her adopted land, the United States of America. At Seed the World, we believe that these two Nations are destined to become closer, and to usher in the best times the world has yet seen. Seed the World attempts to work towards this goal by building bridges in several ways:

Vision
Seed the World is a nonprofit foundation. It was founded on the belief that individuals can make a difference in the global village by helping others help themselves to obtain essentials such as food, shelter and education. We believe that by helping others help themselves, we can learn something about the human Spirit and, ultimately, ourselves.
In this information age when everything around us is changing too fast, there is a need to see what never changes…we need to focus on values and ways of thinking that can benefit everyone…and our work is ongoing.
