We’re an ambitious lot at the Adore Animals Foundation and we’re enthusiastic about positive actions for animals.

We have two current projects we are working hard to achieve. We don’t receive government or any other funding, so in line with social enterprise ideals, we have produced a book Moments of Connection to fund our projects. It’s a win-win situation – you receive a benefit and so do the animals. The proceeds from every book purchased goes to the following projects. 

Black Saturday Recovery Project

The Black Saturday bushfires in Victoria in February, 2009 were among Australia’s worst natural disasters. The fires killed 173 people and countless animals, annihilated entire communities, and destroyed hundreds of thousands of hectares, many of them invaluable habitat for a number of species, some endangered.

We have identified FOUR Black Saturday bushfire projects – two in animal recovery and two in animal bushfire prevention – and are committed to implementing these.

Dog Rehoming Project 

On the domestic animal front, we’re particularly passionate about helping shelter animals. We feel strongly that the destruction of more than 150,000 perfectly healthy animals a year in Australia is unacceptable. It’s inhuman, needless and it must stop.

So, our primary ongoing project for the next three years is implementing programs and strategies to benefit shelter animals, we have called this our Dog Rehoming Project.

Our Dog Rehoming Project aims to:
• reduce euthanasia rates
• reduce stress on animals in shelters
• create alternative adoption points
• increase rehoming success
• create standardised practices
• make shelter adoptions a positive experience
