All of our members are 100% volunteers who travel at their own expense to help support animals in need. Each volunteer provides their own airfare to the location, gives up their vacation time at work and provide their skills and knowledge to help these animals. Each campaign is dependent on fundraising and grants to provide the necessary medications and supplies to perform each campaign.

Participate in a Project

Volunteer with one of our campaigns using our Online Volunteer Questionnaire. Once you fill out an application, you will be added to our mailing list and we will contact you for an interview once campaign planning is underway.

Volunteer Expectations

Every campaign is different and may have different requirements of the volunteers. In the majority of cases housing, transportation to and from the clinic, lodging, hotel, and 2 meals a day, while we are working is provided to the volunteers by Visiting Veterinarians International Organization.

Volunteers are responsible for their own airfare to the destination country, dinners and incidentals. Volunteers are required to fundraise personally for a specific amount (tbd) to help offset the cost of housing, transportation and food. Occasionally a special excursion is organized for the volunteers and would require some type of contribution for the excursion if the volunteer wishes to participate. Sometimes these excursions are covered 100% by the donation of local organizations, sometimes it may be at a reduced rate.
