Program accomplishments

  • Seeding Mercy is a non-profit organization dedicated to support farming and farmers in South Sudan. We receive both individual donations and grants from corporations. Our primary goal is to increase self-sufficiency and food stability for the farmers we serve. This year we organized a used-clothing drive and filled a 40 foot cargo container. It was sent to South Sudan in March 2025. More than 1000 farmers have been supported by Seeding Mercy during the past 5 years. This year we added solar panel and irrigation to some of our farms.
