Helping Australia’s Hearts and Paws

Happy Paws Happy Hearts (HPHH) exists to create positive connections between socially isolated Australians and rescue animals. We aim to solve two significant social challenges:  

  1. 1.1 million Australians experiencing social isolation or exclusion.

  2. Hundreds of thousands of rescue animals waiting for adoption across Australia.   

HPHH needs you to join us in making a difference in the lives of isolated Australians and rescue animals. Donate now to support Happy Paws Happy Hearts Foundation Limited as we expand our programs around Australia.

Even a small donation can make a big impact.

Our Story

Founded in Queensland, HPHH is now considered one of Australia's most successful social enterprises. In particular, HPHH has received recognition for supporting Australia's most disadvantaged groups and growing their ability to re-engage socially, and in the workforce.  

Each week we connect almost 500 people overcoming mental health challenges and individuals living with disabilities across seven locations throughout Australia. Our courses include animal care, handling and training, and an Intensive program for veterans and first responders living with PTSD. 

Each year, participants provide around 40,000 hours of socialisation, training and engagement for thousands of rescue animals. Demonstrated benefits for participants include increased confidence, skills development, improved quality of life and genuine vocational pathways. 

With your help, we can support more paws and hearts on their “return to life” journey from social isolation to social inclusion.

Please donate today to support our Happy Paws Happy Hearts programs and countless Australians on their journey for positive change.

All donations of $2 or more are tax-deductible.
