My Nonprofit Reviews

My husband and I stumbled across Warmheart in our search for a non-profit which was helping the remote districts and hilltribes of northern Thailand, and which might be interested in us as volunteers. We are both 60 and hoped we had some relevant skills to offer. Impressed by Evelind and Michael, and by their drive, vision, determination, obvious openness, honesty and flexibility, we took the plunge earlier this year and headed to Phrao to join them for 3 months. We didn't have any fixed ideas, and they had no fixed plans for us, but quickly we found a niche where we could use some of our business experience and which seemed to help them progress an important part of their vital Public Health programme. As part of that, we were able to travel amongst the villages in the local area and see, first-hand, the challenges faced by the elderly and disabled in the community. Although Warmheart is a tiny cog in the scheme of things in Thailand, its impact to the Phrao community through the children's home, the Public Health programme, environmental programs and the micro business support is significant to many local people.
We had a fabulous, eye-opening, humbling, time and will be forever grateful to Evelind and Michael for taking a chance on us.
