I heard about this program on my local radio station. Basically just like Pay it Forward and the 10 Day Give, it is a program to encourage people to give to others. With the Seed A Need program I believe the intention is to give to strangers and after you do something for them or give them something you hand them a Seed a Need card. They then do a kind deed or give to someone else and then give that next person the card.
What is really fun is that each card has a unique number that you can plug in on the Seed A Need website which shows everything that has been given via that card. So you can actually track how people have paid it forward before and after you.
From the Seed A Need website…
“SeedANeed is not a charity or institution looking to raise funds or solicit contributions. It is a cause… A cause that anyone can participate in. A cause looking for individuals who are not seeking out popularity or crediblity but rather someone looking to make history… a history of changing lives. The only credit goes to God.”
So if you are interested head on over to SeedANeed.com and order a card to get the domino effect started!

Nice way to get started on some social activity.. i think this is great way of engaging oneslef towards noble causes..Thanks for putting this toghether.
no prob – as soon as I heard about it, I just thought I had to mention it!
Really cool idea. My brother-in-law’s church did something similar to this last Christmas. I headed over to the site and ordered a card.
A very cool premise and I also ordered my card today. It seems like they are based out of St. Louis but hopefully through the online ordering process it can spread to other parts of the globe. I will do my part to seed a need in the Chicago area!
a news station in atlanta is doing something similiar where they start the “random act of kindness” then give you the card with the tracking number…
i am working on getting my circle of friends involved.
I think we need to carry it on. I am proclaiming May, the month of Giving! Its not really ours anyway!
Hey Angie,
It’s great to participate in these acts of kindness, it will definitely help bringing out a new helpful world out of the world today…
All the best…
