Become a Volunteer
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~Winston Churchill Volunteering not only helps the cause in which you are in support of, but it is an entirely selfless choice which enhances and brings strength and joy to the soul.
The Australian Cavy Sanctuary is managed entirely by volunteers. If you are passionate about guinea pigs and animal welfare, you can help to take a stand for small animals and you can help make a difference by becoming a volunteer. ACS Shelters are managed most of the time by just one shelter manager and with the help of volunteers we are able to expand and continue our objectives, including providing sanctuary for the 100's of guinea pigs we receive into our care each year and through continuous education and awareness initiatives. How do I become a volunteer for the Australian Cavy Sanctuary? To begin with please fill in a volunteer application form below. Once your Application Form has been reviewed by your local ACS Shelter Manager you will be notified as soon as possible. If your Application Form is accepted you will need to then fill in a Volunteer Agreement Form in person with the shelter manager of the shelter you wish to volunteer for.
Please Note: You must be 16yrs of age or over to apply to volunteer. We believe that volunteering can enrich young people by teaching responsibility, helping to develop a sense of self and by education with regards to how to correctly care for animals and to respect and value animals. If you are 16 or 17 years of age your parent or guardian will need to sign and consent to all application and agreement forms sent through to ACS.
(Please leave blank. The online Agreement Form is for viewing purposes only).
