ABOUT SEEDS TO INSPIRE FOUNDATION
Rooted in Community, Growing for Change
Our Mission
To inspire and uplift individuals and communities by embracing Food as Medicine, promoting sustainable wellness practices, and delivering education that fosters health equity and well-being for all.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every individual and community thrives in vibrant health, nourished by equitable access to wholesome, plant-based nutrition, sustainable wellness practices, and the transformative power of education. Guided by compassion, cultural wisdom, and the principles of Lifestyle Medicine, we strive to create a legacy of vitality, resilience, and empowerment that transcends generations.
Origin Story
Seeds to Inspire began with a healing journey that reversed chronic diseases through a plant-based lifestyle and mindfulness. From this journey, our Core Lifestyle Wellness Initiative (CLWI) was born—rooted in Arizona and now bearing fruit as it supports communities far and wide.
The CLWI: A Tree of Growth and Transformation
The CLWI stands as a steadfast tree, its trunk the solid foundation that anchors all we do.
Its branches stretch outward, symbolizing our diverse programs—from flourishing garden initiatives to empowering health jumpstarts.
The twigs, delicate yet essential, embody the finer details: workshops, catering, retreats, and other enriching experiences woven into each branch.
Together, these interconnected elements create a living system, nurturing growth, resilience, and profound transformation for all who find shelter beneath its canopy.
The Growth of Seeds to Inspire Foundation
2016 — Jacque's healing journey led her to Forks over Knives and her own experimentation with a whole plant food diet (leading to an eventual 164-pound weight loss, the reversal of a Type II diabetes diagnosis, and more. See more about Jacque here.)
2018 — Seeds to Inspire Foundation emerges officially as a 501c(3) nonprofit as Jacque begins to realize the potential for her own healing journey to affect her community's level of health equity. Over the next few years, Seeds to Inspire organizes and participates in community and online events — distributing Bags of Kindness with health-promoting food for families in need, free-to-all documentary screenings, panel discussions, Food For Life classes, and more.
Today and beyond — Seeds to Inspire Foundation continues to promote health equity with free-to-all documentary screenings, panel discussions, workshops, and through programs like Seva Jumpstart that allow participants to witness their body's own healing power when fed delicious and immune-boosting plant-based food.
