Parrots for Purpose has exceeded all expectation and grown to a whole new level.
Early in 2022 we’re intending to operate from a new central premises that can provide workshops, social events, therapy groups etc.
To accommodate costs associated with this we have implemented a fee structure effective from now. This is still less than 50% of most pet stores and private sellers.
To keep it very simple and straight forward we will have three packages.

When we started we really didn’t expect to give away 20, let alone 200. We hit our ‘road map’ target of 200 for this year at
Gaven Primary School
As part of ‘Mental Health Week’ we visited Robina Private Hospital 12/10/21
So many smiles, warm and affectionate interactions.

Archie
Our Mascot
(Eclectus roratus)
Archie is not only our mascot and chairman of the board, he’s the inspiration behind ‘Parrots for Purpose’.
He is our own enigmatic gentleman of the parrot world overseeing all our operations at the Parrots for Purpose headquarters. No bird leaves without his nod of approval and he drills them on friendliness, empathy, communication and manners.
Hand-Raised Cockatiels
We are hand-raising cockatiels from 3 weeks old so that they are familiar with human contact and are happy to snuggle.
Ringneck Parrots
These birds are a favorite to many, however they do like waking up at the glimpse of sunrise and will share it with you! Also, they have extremely strong beaks, gloves are advised when handling. From time to time we do have hand raised babies to place with people.
Quaker Parrots
These little guys are one of the favorites of Parrots for Purpose. A few color varieties and one of the largest personalities packed into a small feathered parcel. Hugely entertaining and brilliant companions. From time to time we do have hand raised babies to place with people.
Conures
Such entertaining and energetic friends. These guys keep us amused for hours, they’re full of life, love a cuddle and thrive on companionship. We are getting increasing numbers of these.
Our beautiful Girl ‘Opal’
Such a beautiful little baby Eclectus. Her and Archie have become amazing friends.
What we’re about
We are in the business of assisting people in need on an availability basis and at no cost.
We are a non-profit group and our main goal is to make a difference in individual’s life journey.
We come from a position of having experienced Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety first hand. The remarkable and positive affect owning a parrot has achieved in the management and healing of associated symptoms is worth sharing.
Next Steps…
