About Us

Remote Animal Assistance (RAA) is a grassroots charity working across some of Australia’s most remote communities to reduce animal suffering and improve access to veterinary care, supplies, and education. We are advocating for innovative, community-led programs to support remote pet owners and promote long-term change.

About the Role

We are seeking a highly organised and motivated Fundraising Coordinator to lead and grow our fundraising activities and supporter engagement. This role requires strong initiative, attention to detail, and the ability to juggle multiple competing priorities with confidence and creativity.

You will play a key role in powering the delivery of lifesaving vet care, desexing programs, and community education initiatives in some of the most isolated areas of Australia.
