Volunteering for CRQ

We understand that not everyone can foster a dog in their home, but there are other meaningful ways you can support Chihuahua Rescue Queensland as a volunteer. Below are just a few of the roles you can be involved with Chihuahua Rescue Queensland. If you have other ideas of ways you could contribute to the team, we welcome offers of help and support and are always grateful to hear from those who would like to invest their time and efforts into this rescue group.

 
 

TRANSPORT VOLUNTEERS

Transporting foster dogs to and from vet visits and meet and greets. Collecting new surrenders from shelters, vets and meeting points.


HOME CHECK VOLUNTEERS

Visiting the homes of potential adopters and foster carers and completing a simple and non-intrusive checklist to help identify suitable homes for our rescue dogs. 


FUNDRAISING VOLUNTEERS

We’re always looking for fundraising volunteers - from helping at events and markets, to organising workplace fundraisers, raffles or even Bunnings sausage sizzles. We aren’t short of ideas and often get messages with fundraising suggestions but human power is what we really need to help keep our rescue alive. Our team is volunteer based and we love that we get to help our little furry friends but it is a lot of work when it falls to a small team so extra offers of support are always appreciated.
