Healing Hands Foundation AUNZ

One of the largest storms ever to hit northern Vietnam, Typhoon Yagi has caused massive destruction and loss of life and it's not over yet. Floods and landslides are now wreaking havoc.

Working on the ground with two dōTERRA Healing Hands partner charities, Hagar International, (Animal Bank Program) and Blue Dragon, we are helping to get urgent assistance to people in devastated areas.

But, we need your help.

From 18-30 September, dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation Australia & New Zealand is reaching out for community support with our Typhoon Yagi Appeal.

Healing Hands Foundation Australia & New Zealand will kick start the donation with $10,000, and every dollar raised via this appeal, (up to a further $10,000), will also be dollar for dollar matched. These funds will be equally split between our 2 x charity partners.

dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation AUNZ recently embarked on a mission to share the positive impact we're making in the Yen Bai province of Vietnam through our charity partner Hagar and their Animal Bank Program.

Designed to grow household income for trafficking survivors and women at risk of human trafficking, Hagar’s Animal Bank Program provides women with a pair of income-producing animals such as goats or pigs, and offers training in care and breeding to help improve their long-term economic livelihoods.

We’ll be taking you behind the scenes of our incredible trip to Vietnam where we met some of the women who are participating in this program. You’ll hear their real-life stories and see how we’re changing lives in this region by giving vulnerable women access to a sustainable income and empowering them to create better futures.

At Leadership Retreat 2024, dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation AUNZ linked arms with the charity partner Good 360 Australia to make a difference to people impacted by fires and floods by creating Disaster Relief Packs.

Every year in Australia, $2.5 billion of unsold household goods are wasted and 1 in 8 Australians are living below the poverty line. Good360 Australia exists to reduce this waste by connecting these unsold goods with the people who desperately need them, creating a circle of good, where everyone benefits.

With just a $10 donation, our Leadership Retreat Service Activity allowed our dōTERRA community to join this circle, offering victims of natural disasters a ‘fresh start’ with Disaster Relief Packs that contained essential items such as shampoo and body wash, alongside emotionally supportive items from dōTERRA such as diffusers and essential oils – all accompanied by handwritten words of support from our volunteers.

We recently welcomed our Perth Wellness Advocate community to a special volunteering information event for the doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation AUNZ.​

Tracey Wickham and Vicki Kersey of Friends with Dignity shared about their vital work helping people impacted by domestic and family violence, inspiring our community to support their Sanctuary Program. As volunteers, our Wellness Advocates will help Friends with Dignity transform houses into homes for people who have escaped domestic violence, so they can start their new journey with dignity, free from abuse. ​

“It was wonderful to see the passion and commitment of our community come together to support Friends with Dignity. I was especially delighted to overhear conversations of teams already making plans of how they will collect goods for the houses and work together to support The Sanctuary program as it expands across Perth.” – Carolyn Bruce, doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation AUNZ.​
