SEEDS Together is a nonprofit that creates intimate global partnerships to promote sustainable economic growth in rural Ghanaian communities. SEEDS Together facilitates personal relationships between African entrepreneurs and international donors, whose donations provide the productive physical resources needed for rural development. Through our interactive web platform and hybrid microfinance model, donors can subsidize high-quality seeds, fertilizer, farming equipment, construction materials, sewing machines, and other low-cost, high-impact assets for African entrepreneurs committed to sustainable development. Their vision is embodied by the SEEDS acronym: Strategies for Economic Empowerment and Developmental Sustainability.

SEEDS Together was founded by recent college grads Lissy McConnell and Beau Tremitiere. Lissy and Beau have moved to Ghana, where they work side-by-side with the DIVOG team on their complimentary agendas for rural development. SEEDS Together will be launching its Pilot Program in Kpedze-Todze this fall, as Kpedze-Todze has been a flagship DIVOG partner community over the last decade. Robert Tornu serves as SEEDS Together Director of Ghanaian Operations, while Lissy and Beau frequently collaborate on DIVOG initiatives and happily assist DIVOG in welcoming foreign volunteers.
