A registered charity building capacity for self-reliance through education, healthcare, disaster relief, and infrastructure.
The dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation Australia & New Zealand is a registered charity that provides humanitarian support in communities experiencing poverty, crisis, or distress.
This foundation exists to extend dōTERRA's impact beyond product sales — building capacity for self-reliance through education, healthcare, disaster relief, and infrastructure projects in Australia, New Zealand, and globally. Healing Hands operates as a Public Benevolent Institution with Deductible Gift Recipient status (ABN 28619392344), meaning all donations over $2 are tax-deductible for Australian taxpayers. dōTERRA Australia covers all administrative and overhead costs, ensuring 100% of donations reach project recipients.
Healing Hands operates through three main channels: disaster response, community development, and volunteer service projects.
Rapid deployment of essential supplies to Australian communities affected by bushfires, floods, or natural disasters.
Building schools, healthcare clinics, and water systems in developing countries where dōTERRA sources essential oil ingredients.
Funding literacy initiatives, vocational training, and educational resources in under-resourced communities.
Supporting mobile medical clinics, maternal health programs, and basic healthcare services in regions lacking infrastructure.
Coordinating hands-on service projects where dōTERRA community members directly support local charities.
dōTERRA Australia funds all administrative costs, so every dollar donated goes directly to projects. Many customers also add small donations to their orders, creating a funding stream that scales with business growth.
After catastrophic bushfires, Healing Hands partnered with Good360 Australia to provide Disaster Relief Packs — essential household items plus dōTERRA essential oils and diffusers — to families who lost everything.
The impact: families received comprehensive support packages, helping them rebuild with dignity.
In Vietnam's Yen Bai province, Healing Hands funds livestock for women survivors of human trafficking. Women receive a pair of goats or pigs plus breeding training; once their herd multiplies, they pass breeding pairs to other women.
The outcome: sustainable income sources that reduce vulnerability to re-trafficking.
Healing Hands volunteers transformed houses into homes for women and children escaping domestic violence — providing furniture, household essentials, and welcoming spaces.
The work: families starting new lives, free from abuse.
While Healing Hands operates independently from Co-Impact Sourcing, the two complement each other in communities where dōTERRA sources ingredients. Co-Impact Sourcing creates employment through ethical purchasing; Healing Hands addresses broader needs — education, healthcare, infrastructure — that commercial partnerships alone cannot solve.
In the Somali Frankincense communities, for example, Co-Impact Sourcing provides stable income to harvesters through guaranteed purchase agreements, while Healing Hands funds mobile healthcare clinics, educational materials for children, and water infrastructure projects.
When you purchase dōTERRA products, you support ethical sourcing. When you donate to Healing Hands, you support humanitarian projects.
My Wellness Project operates within dōTERRA's broader ecosystem, which includes both ethical sourcing commitments and charitable humanitarian work. When you purchase products through My Wellness Project, you're working with a company whose profits fund Healing Hands' administrative operations, and you have the option to include small donations ($2, $5, $10) at checkout that flow directly to current projects.
The Sleep Well Pack represents your personal investment in better rest. If you choose to support Healing Hands additionally, that represents your investment in community development. Product purchases support ethical sourcing and business operations; charitable donations support humanitarian projects. Both matter. Both create impact. Neither is contingent on the other.
When purchasing through dōTERRA's platform, select a Healing Hands donation amount at checkout. 100% of your contribution goes to current projects.
Donate directly through the Healing Hands platform. All donations over $2 are tax-deductible (ABN 28619392344).
Watch for announcements about hands-on opportunities in your region — assembling disaster relief packs, furnishing homes for families escaping domestic violence, and supporting community education initiatives.
Supporting Healing Hands is optional and separate from product purchases. When choosing wellness products through My Wellness Project, you're making a decision about personal health. When donating to Healing Hands, you're making a decision about community support. Both align with values-based living — but neither requires the other.
Always read the label and follow the directions for use.
