1000 Hearts kindness project

Changing the world, one heart at a time.

The journey of 1000 Hearts starts with one stitch...

1000 Hearts started as a kindness project in 2016 because I saw a need for simple acts of love and compassion. A global community of "heartists" grew around my idea, and it keeps getting bigger.

In 2024, I left my career in the non-profit sector to focus on 1000 Hearts full-time. My dream is to build a viable social enterprise which uses its profits to bring the positive impacts of self-compassion, kindness and connection to anyone who can benefit.

Welcome to 1000 Hearts, where we believe we can change the world, one heart at a time.
