Fundraising FAQs

The most commonly asked questions about fundraising for Happy Doggo.

How do I fundraise outside of the US or UK?

As Happy Doggo is only a registered charity in the US and the UK, the easiest option is to use our JustGiving pages above to fundraise for the US or UK charities. You will be able to select the following donation currencies: GBP, EUR, AUD, CAD, USD, NZD and set a custom fundraising goal on your page.

The benefit of using our JustGiving pages is that all donations will be automatically donated to Happy Doggo, and your fundraiser will automatically be eligible for inclusion on the leaderboard.

If you would prefer to set up your own fundrasier, you can use GoFundMe to create a custom fundraiser anywhere in the world. As this will not automatically be linked to Happy Doggo, you will need to donate the proceeds of your fundraiser independently. To ensure that you are eligible for inclusion on the leaderboard, please email our team at woof@happydoggo.com when you have completed your fundraiser and made your final donation.

What is included in the trip to Thailand?

The trip to Thailand includes roundtrip economy class airfare for 1 person, 7 nights of accommodation in a 4 star hotel, and daily visits to Happy Doggo Land during your stay.

Winners must be legally allowed to enter Thailand and are responsible for obtaining their own visas, if applicable.

How is the winner selected?

The contest is open globally and the winner is the top fundraiser, by money raised, for all fundraisers closed within a calendar year.

In order to rank on the leaderboard, the fundraising page must be closed and all funds must be donated to Happy Doggo.

If the top fundraiser cannot accept the prize, it will automatically go to the second highest fundraiser (and so on, until a winner is declared).
