PERMACULTURE AID AND ORPHANAGE PROGRAMS

aid-orphan-program
The aid and orphanage programs were birthed  in the heart of Nicholas Burtner with the belief  that permaculture and holistic practices truly help and empower the dis-empowered and needy. School of Permaculture provides aid to orphanages, kids homes, women’s shelters, and truly struggling agricultural farms (called aid sites) by redesigning their environments and providing truly empowering training and site design. Our  focus is not on just providing funds for feeding people or building homes, but a focus on empowerment and regenerative sustainability. We work to get the aid sites off of the I.V. of funding and into real world self reliance where they are:

  • providing their own clean water via thoughtful permaculture strategies
  • growing and creating nutrient dense foods for their inhabitants
  • building and living in off grid super energy efficient housing that also treat their own septic
  • and having an abundance mentality as opposed to coming from a place of lack where the residents can start believing in themselves again and that there is an abundant future for them

Each aid site is unique in it’s own needs but our overall goal is to provide the necessary training, usually a 12 day course, as well as offer hands on assistance in development of the site. If funds are raised for the site then that also goes to helping with the installation of the project. Our mission is to be of service to those in need and for all parties to feel good about what they are doing and have a great time being involved.
