Our Vison

Communities are fundamental to our wellbeing. Our vision is that happy communities are everywhere.

Happy Communities are places where we live, play and work; places where we know each other, are connected, feel we belong and care for each other’s wellbeing. Happy Communities are fundamental for our safety, physical and mental health and our general happiness because we know we live in a place where we have the support of our fellow citizens. 

Would you like to become a Happy Community Builder, or maybe you already are?

Who is a Happy Community Builder?

A Happy Community Builder is someone who:

• Is involved in supporting community-driven change;
• Believes you can accomplish together with other community builders, more than you can accomplish alone;
• Knows that collectively we already have everything we need to make fundamental change;
• Shares your individual talents, efforts, strengths, assets and vision with other community builders;
• Recognizes community members share responsibility for making happy communities locally, regionally, nationally and globally;

If  these qualities sound like you, then we invite you to become a member of Happy Community Builders where we:

• Support each other to be more effective today in the individual work we do and
