How your
fundraising helps
PetRescue’s adoption platform gives pets the best chance to find a home.
No matter where in Australia a pet might find themselves homeless, your support gives them a place on PetRescue.com.au. By bringing rescue pets face-to-face with thousands of potential adopters each day, PetRescue.com.au connects homeless pets with someone to love them.
By raising funds through Best Friends' Walk, you will:
Help homeless pets find love.
Funds raised go towards the adoption platform and digital support tools, that help relieve workloads, speed up the adoption process and increase the capacity of rescue organisations, councils and shelters to help the most vulnerable pets.
Keep pets safe.
PetRescue’s longer-term programs and initiatives keep pets safe by directly supporting the humans and communities who love and care for them.
These initiatives create bypasses and early intervention pathways to keep pets out of the rescue system.
Support pets in need.
Donations also help support PetRescue's raft of life-saving programs and services, such as crisis care support, large-scale food and product donations and pet transport programs, which help the rescue community and pets in need.
Meet Mia and Ollie, who found their best friend because they had a profile on PetRescue. Mia and Ollie are now very special Delta-qualified therapy dogs who volunteer with Danielle at a palliative care unit.
“PetRescue makes the process so much easier; having a central place where you can come across dogs like Mia and Ollie, who you wouldn't go looking for because you didn't know that's what you wanted or needed or where to go. I think it's really opened up opportunities to save dogs and match people up with dogs who otherwise wouldn't have been able to find each other. It was PetRescue that connected us with our dogs as well as our other dog, Henry (who has passed the rainbow bridge). It just makes these really special connections.”
