The fundraiser will take place exclusively on the Survival Garden Seeds website, giving customers the opportunity to support relief efforts by simply purchasing seeds—an essential product for gardeners and homesteaders alike.
Survival Garden Seeds, known for its commitment to empowering individuals and families to grow their own food, is dedicated to supporting communities in times of crisis. The devastation caused by Hurricanes Helene and Milton has left countless families without basic necessities, homes, and access to essential resources. These storms ravaged parts of the Southeast, leaving severe flooding, wind damage, and widespread power outages in their wake. Many communities are still struggling to recover, and immediate relief efforts are critical.
By launching this fundraiser, Survival Garden Seeds is aligning its mission of self-sufficiency and sustainability with much-needed disaster relief. Their customers’ purchases will allow them to prepare for the future by growing their own gardens and will also contribute directly to organizations providing vital aid in the hardest-hit areas. The 15% donation from sales will support efforts to supply cold weather gear, water rescue operations, and essential rebuilding supplies to those impacted.

The Humanitarian Aid Fund, part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, has been providing long-term resources to assist in rebuilding the communities devastated by these storms, ensuring that essential aid reaches those in greatest need.
