Building strong communities requires training and assistance to create sustainable livelihoods. Warm Heart has three successful programs in place and more on the way!
Microenterprise
Project
Our microenterprise works with local artisan groups by providing a fair wage for creating beautiful scarves and jewelry which we sell globally on our website Fashion Accessories by Warm Heart. All profits are reinvested in the program to help more women.

Biochar Project
Teaching farmers how to make biochar to improve their soil and increase the quality and quantity of their crops is a major part of our environmental program. The Biochar Project decreases emissions of global warming gases and killer PM2.5 (tiny smoke particulates), while creating jobs during the dry season when there is no work for the poor.

Styrofoam Brick Project
Working with cement and recycled styrofoam we create building bricks that are strong, light weight, and environmentally friendly. It is easy to do and creates a useful product that can be sold. We have built two cool, test structures at Warm Heart,. Our main aim, however, is to create meaningful work for men and bricks to build low-cost housing tor the destitute disabled and elderly.

Core Competency Skills
Our latest project is a community-based computer learning center that combines online with hands-on job training for disadvantaged rural youth in North Thailand. We are building our Eco Learning Center (yes, with our bricks!) and raising money to purchase more computers and hire a full-time teacher.
