We’re for Better Mental Health
Black Dog Institute is a proudly independent not-for-profit globally renowned mental health research institute. We are the only medical research institute in Australia that investigates mental health across the lifespan—from childhood to adulthood.
We believe in creating hope for those experiencing mental illness by improving
mental health outcomes for all Australians.
OUR CONTRIBUTION
At Hair of the Dog, our apparel not only celebrates the laid back Aussie culture but also promotes the well-being of men’s mental health, a topic that's usually overlooked. So with every purchase, a portion of our proceeds are donated to the Black Dog Institute, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to help reform Australia’s mental health system.
Our mission is to encourage mates to come together, share a beverage, speak up and have an open conversation. From experience, we know that men are more likely to talk about their issues when relaxing with friends over a beverage. So support our cause and speak up and let's help make a change in the mental health space for Australians.
BECOME PART OF IT!
