About Us The Australian Pet Welfare Foundation is a research, education and advocacy organisation working to improve the health and wellbeing of pets, people and their environments. Our work focuses on evidence-based solutions that support communities, reduce shelter and pound intake, and help prevent the euthanasia of healthy and treatable cats and dogs.

We are currently setting up the Raisely fundraising platform and are seeking an experienced volunteer to help us build strong, effective and donor-friendly fundraising pages.

• Setting up and refining Raisely donation pages
• Creating campaign-specific donor pages and fundraising pages
• Assisting with page layout, structure, wording and donor experience
• Helping set up donor journeys, thank-you pages and supporter communications
• Advising on best-practice donation page design and conversion

• Experience creating donation pages, fundraising pages or peer-to-peer fundraising campaigns
• Understanding of donor journeys and online donor experience
• Strong attention to detail
• Good written communication skills
• Ability to work independently and meet agreed timelines
• Experience in the nonprofit, charity or animal welfare sector would be highly regarded
• A genuine interest in animal welfare and evidence-based change

Why volunteer with us? This is a high-impact opportunity to use your specialist fundraising skills to directly support animal welfare reform. Your work will help APWF improve its digital fundraising capacity, strengthen donor engagement and raise funds to support programs that save lives.
