Our Hearts, Our Mission
1000 Hearts is a social enterprise (see definition below) and a community. We believe that small acts of kindness have a powerful impact, creating a groundswell of change for a more compassionate world. A large body of research gives this belief a firm grounding in science.
Our hearts are our language of kindness, and we offer them as a symbol of care. They are made with love and carry this message with them.
Our mission is to share the benefits of kindness far and wide. We do this by making hearts with love and sharing them with anyone who needs a little kindness. A heart full of love is the best kind of heart, even if they're a little wonky or imperfect.
Definition: a social enterprise is a business that puts people and planet first. It trades like any other business but exists specifically to make the world a better place. A social enterprise seeks to solve a social or environmental problem. It can be a for-profit or non-profit organisation, or a charity that trades.
Thank you for being here,
Sarah.
Hello, I'm Sarah
I started 1000 Hearts in 2016 because I saw a need for simple acts of love and connection. I've always loved hand-sewing and wanted to make a tangible symbol of kindness that people could carry as a talisman against life’s darker elements.
Thus, 1000 Hearts was born from love and a desire to offer up something good and pure that would speak to the humanity in us all.
While I have amazing support from my family, friends and volunteers, 1000 Hearts is a very small social enterprise, so when it comes to production, sales, social media, emails, packaging and sending orders, it's just me. Please be patient if things take a little longer than you'd hoped.
I am delighted that so many people have joined me to create a global community of kindness. I hope you love it here.
~ Sarah De Jonge, founder & director

Shout out to Mads
This is my daughter Maddie (Mads). She's an amazing young woman and a talented artist, too. Original artwork on my website and in 1000 Hearts resources and products is all her work.
Maddie also volunteers her time, between rock climbing, university studies and working as a teacher's aide, to sort and package ALL our community hearts. She takes such care to wrap them all with love to make sure they are shared with our message of kindness. You have to see her process to understand how much love goes into it.
Thanks Mads x
Let customers speak for us
These little hearts are so cute! They are quick and easy to make up, and a joy to give! Everything you need comes with the kit. So much fun!
This bag of scrapettes is like a treasure box for heartists! A few pieces large enough to squeeze a full-size heart from, some pieces to make 'mended hearts' and lots and lots to cut for decorations and embellishments. Just delightful :)
Hello Sarah, thank you so much for sending me 50 beautiful hearts for the students at Forrestdale Primary School, Perth. These little hearts bring so much joy to the kids. I know each heart was made with lots of love and care. Much appreciated. Kind regards, Kaz - YouthCARE Chaplain
Was gifted one of these at Pallitive Care Grace McKellar Geelong,where mum is fighting a losing battle to cancer. This tiny heart gave my three little ones the biggest smile who’ve been struggling. I think what you’ve done here is nothing short of AMAZING. Something so small but so meaningful. Thank you 🤍
Thank you Sarah, I love stitching with the special edition colour packs, the hearts are exceptional quality and always arrive beautifully packaged with a handwritten card. There are so many beautiful colour mixes to choose from, I love them.
Sarah's hand dyed variegated thread is perfect for stitching 1000 hearts. The different colours on the thread are fabulous and in short blocks so that all the colours show as you progress stitching around the heart. :-)
Makes stitching hearts just that little bit more wonderful - something I didn't think was possible!
I thought the information was interesting. If you haven’t got a copy of it, go to the website and purchase it.
I love the color of this. They’re all beautiful and so bright and color. I’m never disappointed and Sarah is pretty cool.
I make a heart for every customer that passes in my pharmacy where I work lv giving a little lv thank u Sarah
A simple, high quality and well put together gateway into the obsession of heart making.
The pre-cut hearts are a beautiful quality with a lovely array of colours, every order arrives thoughtfully packaged with a personal handwritten card. This perfectly reflects Sarah’s deep commitment to and passion for this wonderful global kindness community as well as her genuine appreciation for her customers, thank you Sarah ♥️🩵💜💚
