Meet LGIAsuper Community Volunteer Award Finalist, Mykeala

In this week’s catch-up, we profile 19-year-old Mykeala Campanini of Indooroopilly.

Meet Mykeala Campanini

What does an animal lover do when they move to Brisbane to study and are not allowed pets on campus? They start volunteering at an animal shelter – and in the case of Mykeala Campanini, they turn their passion for animal rescue into a thriving charity!

Mykeala founded the animal rescue charity ‘Happy Tails Animal Rescue’ to re-house pets that would otherwise be impounded and euthanised.

After saving 200 animals in her first six months of operation, Mykeala has secured government funding to deliver Queensland’s first purpose-built facility offering safety for pets when families flee domestic violence.
