For a molecule of water to change from a liquid to a gas requires it absorb heat, called the heat of vaporization. Evaporation is the conversion from a liquid (water) to a gas (water vapor), so each molecule that evaporates takes the heat of vaporization with it making the remaining water cooler.

Does warm water promote evaporation?

Yes. Evaporation is the escape of high energy particles from the surface of water. Hotter water means more high energy particles (particles= atoms/molecules) That would be promoting evaporation.
