Mission Statement

First the Seed Foundation is a not-for-profit organization
established to conduct education, outreach and communication
on the value of crops and food produced from seeds.

____________

 

 

Why was First the Seed Foundation established?

To tell the story of the seed industry, because we can’t do it ourselves and if we don’t, someone else will, and we may not like it.

 

Your sponsorship to the First the Seed Foundation’s initiatives and events is an investment – in your industry and in your business. The benefits you receive from this investment are significant.

Shape the Future – Your support helps build knowledge and understanding to school age children in Agriculture, and encourage them to pursue careers in our industry. This will help maintain the supply of future employees.

Join the Leaders – Companies, as well as individuals, are known by the company they keep. FTSF supporters are associated with the industries leading suppliers and operators.

Receive Recognition – The FTFS publicizes your participation in appropriate communication pieces and it’s Web site. Event sponsors are recognized for their contributions at the event site.

Build Loyalty – FTSF sponsorship not only expands awareness of your products and/or company, but also enhances the value of all you offer in the minds of you customers.

Enhance Public Image – A FTSF sponsorship will highlight your companies role as a benefactor and a participant in creating awareness as to the role of seed in the production of food, feed, fiber and fuel to help keep the our and the global economy running.

Founding Contributors – For the first year only of support, (ending December 31, 2008), you will be forever known as “Founding Contributor” to First the Seed Foundation.

These are a few things we can do with your help;

• Initial Outreach; Website, Video/DVD and Public Service Announcement.
• Seed the Future in Schools
• Children’s Museum Exhibits
