VIP 20 Columbus proudly supports Seeds of caring
Too many service-oriented organizations exclude kids due to age, denying them access to enriching volunteer experiences shaping their development. Because of this, we’re missing a huge opportunity: engaging an entire upcoming generation of kids in critical issues from the beginning of their lives, instilling in them the passion and confidence to effect change in their communities.
Seeds of Caring empowers kids to create a kinder community with their hearts, hands, and minds by designing meaningful opportunities for kids to engage in service, social action, and community-building.
With the intention of creating love, passion and inspiration, our team chose to support Seeds of Caring and their mission. As our team banded together and formed a cohesive unit of action, we learned that Seeds of Caring’s mission was our’s as well. Its vision was everything we stood for, and therefore inspired us to empower the next generation of leaders.

We, Team 20/20 Vision, the 20th class of Next Level Trainings’ Vision Impact Program (VIP) in Columbus, were charged with creating an impactful community service project. Our decision as a team was to stand in support of creating future leaders of tomorrow through an organization called Seeds of Caring. With a team of only 40 individuals, we boldly declared to raise $88,000 in 21 days. We reached out to corporations, local businesses, family, and friends to support this cause. Our campaign reached all across the country, as far as Washington State and even Europe. No matter our location, we pushed until the very last second of our campaign.
