計畫總覽 OVERVIEW

Bright Side Projects creates a comprehensive support system dedicated to long term improvement in the lives of children, older persons, and families in Taiwan through creative education, plant-based foods, and eco-friendly content rich activities. Our target currently include youth and older persons in indigenous regions, sheltersm and children’s homes. Our goals are achieved through four main actions:

PArticipatory Creative Education (PACE) goes beyond traditional forms of education by combining participation and creative arts as part of the socialization and learning process. Through teamwork, PACE workshops have the ability to introduce social issues and other educational subjects in a fun, interactive, and engaging way while aiding in learning retention for youth and providing a platform for older adults or socially marginalized individuals to engage in their communities. Workshops include art therapy, plant-based cooking, metal smith, wood craft, animal welfare, photography, and more.

Workshops helps Bright Side Projects obtain insight and build organic relationships and trust with individuals and community.

Brighter Futures
Targets teens and young adults by extending a lifeline support to our Bright Side Youth. We empower them  through our customized vocational education program and work with partners to provide them with life skills, practical learning opportunities, and hands-on experiences. We also become a trusted source accompanying them to job interviews, school interviews, and providing other forms of support.

Full Hearts Fulfillment Program
Bright Side Project’s plant-based food fulfillment program empowering underserved communities through food distribution and engaging youths to cook and share plant-based meals with their neighbors. We work with local organic farmers and eateries to provide delivery of basic food staples to families and host bimonthly plant-based meal prep sessions featuring Kids in the Kitchen.  Kids in the Kitchen empowers kids by having them cook free plant-base meals to share with others in their community.

Big Friend Volunteers and Internships
