Episode 41 - Seed Consulting Group

Seed Consulting Group

Brooke Crowe

Today on the GIVE Podcast we have Brooke Crowe, the Executive Director and CEO of the Seed Consulting group. This group is a little bit different from the guests we usually have on this show- but no less amazing. The Seed Consulting group fills in the professional services gap for sustainability non-profits. They provide professional services from a network of pro-bono providers that are some of the top people in their respective careers.

The Seed Consulting group has worked with groups such as Habitat for Humanity, Surfrider Foundation, US Green Chambers of Commerce, Sierra Club, UCLA, and Caltech. With the Sierra Club, they provided data and analytics to help pass Proposition 67 that was for banning the use of single-use plastic bags in the state of California. They work hard to bring together individuals who have key expertise to help really amplify whatever an organization can do for our country as a whole.

The unique aspect of the Seed Consulting group is that donations are amplified so much more. The projects they take on typically cost around $500 - but the amount of revenue that they generate for the non-profits they work for is in the thousands. The professionals themselves, who donate their time and expertise, become more marketable in their own fields.
