We are often asked by island visitors, residents and Bonaire Animal Shelter supporters "What can I do to help?"
Sure you can help....and in any number of ways:
• By volunteering your time
• By making a monetary donation to help keep our Shelter programs operating
• Shop in our animal gift shop
• By donating items. See our Wish List below.
Volunteer
your time
We are looking for volunteers to help with the cleaning and feeding duties at
the shelter. There are many different types of animals that all require different
feeding and cleaning duties. We are also looking for handypersons
and gardeners: Dog and cat care is the priority at the Bonaire
Animal Shelter, so minor repair work and gardening may go neglected. Your hard
work will be much appreciated by the staff and volunteers.
We are ideally looking for people to help on a weekly basis, but if you only
have time to help fortnightly or once a month, then still please contact us.
We are very short of volunteers so any time you could offer the rescue animals
would be wonderful.
Monetary
donation
The Bonaire Animal Shelter is partially supported by the government of Bonaire.
However, most of the operating budget depends on the contributions from businesses
and people such as yourself who appreciate the unswaying affection and devotion
that these animals provide us.
Support
Bonaire provides a way for Americans to donate to their favorite Bonaire
causes and claim charitable deduction on their American income tax. The Support
Bonaire Web site now accepts credit card donations for the Bonaire Animal
Shelter.
Of course, cash donations are always appreciated. Look for the dog house donation boxes in many shops and businesses or on the shelter on Bonaire.
Monetary donations can be made via Bank transfer to Maduro & Curiel's Bank account #102.378.00 or RBTT Bank account #23.10.139.
Shop
in our animal gift shop
Help fund our cause by shopping in our new gift shop. We have a wide selection of dog tops, leashes, animal gifts, t-shirts for you to choose from featuring our new logo printed on them. These items would make a great gift for any animal lover.
