Run entirely by volunteers, the group provides emergency financial assistance for local pet owners seeking support. They also facilitate desexing, microchipping, and vaccination initiatives.Â
If you have a genuine love for animals and enjoy meeting like-minded people, why not lend a helping hand and become a volunteer? By supporting RSPCA NSW and engaging with our many volunteering opportunities, you can make a positive impact in the lives of people and animals in need!
RSPCA NSW rehomes a range of different animals, from dogs, cats, and birds to horses, rabbits, and sheep! We believe that all creatures, great and small, can bring joy to our families and homes. Begin your adoption journey today and make an adorable lifelong friend!
By providing temporary homes for our animals, we can ensure they get the care they need until they are ready to be adopted. Join our network of foster carers for a one-of-a-kind and rewarding experience; with your help, we can change the lives of some of the state’s most vulnerable animals.
We rely on our generous supporters to continue assisting the thousands of animals turning to RSPCA NSW for help. No matter how small yourcontribution, every gift makes a lifesaving difference for animals in need.
By raising funds and lending a hand to communities and their pets, our volunteers play a pivotal role in our work throughout NSW. If you have a genuine concern for animals and enjoy meeting like-minded people, consider lending a helping hand and become a volunteer today!
Our volunteer branches and supporter groups cannot investigate animal cruelty matters. If you need to make an animal cruelty report, please phone our 24-hour contact centre on 1300 278 3589.
Though many of our branches and supporter groups offer subsidised desexing and emergency veterinary assistance, we encourage you to contact your nearest branch, supporter or community volunteer group to inquire about the services and discounts we provide.
Money raised by our branches and supporter groups is spent to address the needs of the local community. With the endorsement of its members, branches also occasionally allocate funds to the wider organisation, to be used for events or community programs that promote the improvement of
animal welfare.
Our branches and supporter groups do not function as animal shelters. They instead raise funds for our organisation and assist with outreach animal assistance.
You do not need to be a RSPCA NSW financial member to volunteer at any of our shelters and adoption centres, branches, supporter groups, or events. Conversely, becoming a volunteer does not automatically make you a member. However, if you wish to join the executive committee at one of our regional branches or supporter groups or want to have voting rights within that branch or group, you will need to become a financial member first.
While volunteers do not receive exclusive discounts or event admission, we frequently offer promotions, special invitations, and discounts to events to all our supporters.
Unfortunately, every state runs a different membership program. You will need to reapply to volunteer with a specific RSPCA.
We promise to uphold the highest ethical standards. Your personal information has never been, and never will be sold or traded to other charities. This is our promise to you.
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the lands on which we live and work. We recognise and respect the enduring relationship they have with their lands and waterways, and particularly acknowledge the vital role animals have played in Indigenous life, stories and culture for tens of thousands of years.
