Echuca Animal Rescue Service is a community-based, not for profit, organisation focused on rescuing, fostering and rehoming companion animals.

We have a dream that one day all animals will be safe, loved and cared for. We believe that every life is special and deserves a second chance.

We will partly fund our veterinary and other costs by fundraising events. Any donations are gratefully accepted and are tax deductible. 

Find us here or phone 0466 983 674.

Chally Animal Rescue

Volunteers at Chally Animal Rescue come from a range of backgrounds - but we all have one thing in common; we are all passionate about helping the forgotten animals in our society. On a daily basis, this is in the form of the many foster animals we look after and adopt into loving, forever homes. But more than this, we are passionate about long-term solutions and community education; our dream is that one day we are no longer needed.
