Donor promise

From every $1 RSPCA Victoria raises, we invest 78 cents to benefit the animals in our care through our work to achieve outstanding animal welfare through education, advocacy, animal care and protection. We invest 13 cents to raise the next $1 and the remaining 9 cents is invested to ensure we have the talented people, infrastructure, and systems we need to manage and deliver our programs for animals. You can read more about our work and finances in our annual reports.

RSPCA Victoria Board members generously volunteer their time and experience at our highest level of governance to help improve the lives of animals in our care and steer our organisation on its vision of ending cruelty to animals. We simply wouldn’t be able to do our important work without our dedicated volunteer base who work across the entire organisation.

RSPCA Victoria is a charity that relies on the kindness and generosity of animal lovers to continue our life-saving animal welfare work. Our shelters care for thousands of animals every year and our Inspectors are on the road every day, rescuing animals in need from cruelty and neglect.

We do not accept gifts from organisations or individuals who are involved in animal-related activities which are at odds with RSPCA animal welfare policy and positions. If you would like more information on our funding, you can view our annual reports here.
