Why donate to BAWCS?
BAWCS relies on donations from compassionate people just like you and volunteers willing to give their time. Without your support, we cannot continue to save and re-home animals in need.
Your support will contribute towards:
- Helping us provide food, veterinary care and accommodation for the animals in our care
- Support for our many farm animals who call BAWCS home, as part of our Farm Friends program
We understand that some people would prefer to donate specific items we need. You may like to view Our Wish List
Pet food donations
BAWCS gratefully accepts pet food donations to help feed animals in our care. These donations also support disadvantaged pet owners in times of need. We have several pet food donation bins located in different supermarkets around Bendigo.
Please note: our animals in care don’t eat “no name” brands of food, so 1 can of Whiskas is better than 2 cans of ‘Black and Gold’ or other similar cheap brands.
Locations of pet food bins
Woolworths at Golden Square and Centro Lansell Plaza Kangaroo Flat
IGA Supermarket at Kangaroo Flat and Eaglehawk
Blankets, Towels and Sheets
We are always in need of clean blankets, towels and flannelette sheets (no fitted sheets please).
Please note: we do not accept feather/down doonas or quilts and are unable to use items of clothing as bedding.
Pet food or bedding donations can also be dropped off at our Shelter but with over 150 farm and companion animals in our care, we are very busy cleaning and feeding so we do ask that you check our Visit Us page prior to coming out.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
