The founder’s mission
we share one linked fate
Maybe you’ve felt this before: something negative or positive happens to another group of people and you feel that same emotion. You are not alone. According to studies from Pew Research Center and Harvard University, people of color more than any other group of adults, feel that when something happens to one racial or ethnic group, they feel it too.
The founding of First Seed Sown Sales & Marketing was based upon 100% of the agency’s efforts being put toward supporting the BIPOC community.
