OUR SANCTUARY


Coming soon – a new, purpose-built HUHA sanctuary in rural Wellington. We can’t wait to secure a safer and brighter future for more animals in need and invite our HUHA community to join us.



There are so many ways to help. From advocating for animal welfare to donating funds, goods or services to supporting our work by volunteering or shopping with HUHA. We couldn’t exist without the generous support of our HUHA community.



We believe that with education and access to the right resources, we can empower people and communities to improve animal welfare and outcomes across New Zealand. Find links and resources to help you help animals in need.
