Buddy Pet Insurance Giving Program

Making a meaningful difference in Australia’s animal welfare communities.

Our Giving Program

Here at Buddy Pet Insurance, our aim is to make a positive difference in the Australian animal community, by helping both animals and the people who care for them. That's why we are committed to give $1 million to Australian animal welfare organisations and registered charities through our Giving Program. This funding helps support a variety of causes, including animal shelters, scholarship programs for aspiring vets and vet nurses, and research initiatives to improve animal wellbeing.

Stay connected with us by visiting our website for the latest on how we're supporting animals and vets.

We've committed $450,000 since launching in June 2025!

Who we support

WIRES

WIRES

WIRES has been rescuing and rehabilitating wildlife across Australia since 1985. With a network of trained volunteers, they are able to respond to more than 190,000 calls for help every year to assist sick, injured and orphaned native animals and provide them with a second chance of life in the wild. WIRES leads the way in wildlife education, supports habitat restoration, and emergency response efforts, making them a vital force in the preservation of Australian wildlife.

WWF-Australia

WWF-Australia

WWF-Australia is a leading conservation organisation committed to restoring and regenerating our planet for all its inhabitants. From species conservation and habitat restoration to high-level advocacy, WWF is building a future where nature and people thrive. Buddy’s Giving Program will help enable WWF-Australia to support regenerative conservation and protect Australian wildlife, including koalas.

Vets Beyond Borders

Vets Beyond Borders

Vets Beyond Borders (VBB) works to improve animal welfare by connecting volunteer vets and nurses with communities and organisations in need. Through its VetMatch program, VBB places skilled professionals with under-resourced veterinary clinics, shelters, and animal welfare programs – both in Australia and the Asia-Pacific. Their work builds local capacity, shares knowledge, and ultimately helps more animals receive the care they deserve.
