Maggie's Rescue

Maggie’s Rescue exists to create a world where no animal is in need of rescue. Operating since 2011, we are a co-operative of volunteer foster carers and passionate animal advocates, working together to achieve our shared vision. We have a no-kill philosophy, with a focus on finding animals their forever homes through our Foster to Adopt Program. This program is key to our organisation’s success, as it rehabilitates our animals in preparation for their new life. We focus on: - reducing the number of unwanted and abandoned animals through rehoming - community education - desexing initiatives, and liaising with other welfare organisations We do this with a direct purpose, which is working towards the introduction of new legislation to give greater protection to all animals. This also serves to provide further direction for other registered rescue organisations. Our purpose is to improve the lives of companion animals—Through education, advocacy and rehoming Our values are: - Compassion - we are empathetic, demonstrating kindness to all animals and humans - Integrity - we continually strive for best practice in the animals we care for, generating trust and respect in the community - Collaboration - we are a co-operative who work with councils, vets and welfare organisations to benefit companion animals - Empowerment - we provide a voice for the voiceless Our objectives are: - To rescue and rehome unwanted companion animals - To advocate for and assist in desexing companion animals, and - To educate and promote animal welfare in the community
