Your trash could be our treasure! - a regular donation to Remote Animal Assistance! ♻️🐾

Recently, RAA received two incredibly generous donations through Containers for Change, turning empty drink containers into something pretty special.

One donation came from 771 containers, contributing $77.10, while another came from a whopping 2,254 containers, contributing $225.40!

That's 3,025 containers and $302.50 going towards animal welfare in remote Far North Queensland communities. 🧡

To put that into perspective, that's enough to fund one month of parasite prevention for 12 community dogs, helping protect them against fleas, ticks and worms or contribute towards other essential veterinary care.

And the best part? It's something almost anyone can get involved in!

Instead of throwing away eligible drink containers, save them up, return them through Containers for Change, and choose Remote Animal Assistance as the recipient of your refund.

A few bottles and cans might not seem like much, but when we all contribute a little, those small refunds can add up to something pretty wonderful.

A huge thank you to whoever is behind these generous contributions, and to everyone who chooses to turn their containers into care for animals. 🧡🐾

When we visit Hope Vale next week, we want to be able to protect as many dogs as possible before we head into the wet season and our access becomes harder 🐾

We’ve seen people ask for prevention and point us towards other dogs they’re worried about. Your support helps us respond to that care and concern with practical assistance.

Today is the funding cut-off for our Hope Vale community visit on 3-4 November. Our updated goal is to fund 50 one-month parasite prevention treatments for community dogs, and we've still got a ways to go to get to that target.

Imagine what we could achieve together with just a little ongoing support. If half of our followers contributed just $5 a month, that could mean $12,500 towards animal welfare every month - or an incredible $150,000 a year! 🧡

Every $25 raised, funds one month of protection against fleas, ticks and worms. You can contribute any amount, with your $2 or $10 joining other donations towards the next complete treatment.

You choose whether to give once or regularly, and recurring contributions can be cancelled anytime. You also choose whatever amount works for you can help us prepare care for this visit. Small donations matter more than most people realise.

A woman in community asked us to check on a relative’s dog because she was worried it had been losing weight. 🐾

We’d met her while visiting her own dog and puppies, and she welcomed the preventative care we could provide. She also wanted to make sure another animal she cared about received attention while we were in town.

These conversations help our team build stronger relationships with community members and better understand the needs of local families and their animals. Your donation helps RAA continue visiting communities, providing accessible preventative care and supporting families to keep their dogs happy and healthy at home.

Right now, we still need to fund 44 more parasite prevention treatments before our next Hope Vale visit next week, on 3-4 November.

Here’s how it works: when you give $5 to the parasite prevention bucket, it joins other donations. Once the total reaches $25, one month of parasite protection is funded for a community dog.

We know 44 treatments is a big ask, but if 110 people contribute $10, we can get there.

Funding closes tomorrow, 28 October.

VET NURSE VOLUNTEER NEEDED - HOPE VALE 🐾

RAA is heading to Hope Vale next week and we’re looking for one qualified vet nurse to join us and help support the visiting veterinary team and local dogs.

📍 Hope Vale, Cape York
📅 2-4 November 2026
🚗 Travel: Departing from Cairns/Tablelands by road early Monday morning, returning to Cairns/Tablelands early Wednesday evening.

You’ll be based at the clinic, helping with vaccinations, preventatives and general support to help get as many dogs as possible the care they need.

We’ll organise your transport and accommodation, so you can focus on what you do best: helping animals!

If you’re a qualified vet nurse and can spare a few days next week, we’d LOVE to hear from you.

Please send us a message or email [email protected] to find out more. If you know a vet nurse who might be keen to get involved, please tag them or share this post!

Every extra set of hands helps us reach more dogs and make a real difference in the community. ❤️🐾

RAA was born after our founder came across an injured mother dog while travelling Cape York and didn’t know how to help her. 🐾

She wanted to bring the dog home, but realised there were puppies somewhere who depended on their mum. As she searched for a way to help, she began to understand how distance, cost and access to veterinary care could leave animals and their communities with very few options.

That experience helped shape the work RAA does today. We coordinate rescue when animals need help and work alongside communities to make preventative care more accessible.

If you’ve recently come home from Cape York or any remote community still thinking about a dog you saw, you can help fund prevention through an Impact Buckets. Every $25 raised in the parasite prevention bucket funds one month of protection for a community dog, every $85 in the parvo bucket funds a parvo vaccine to prevent puppies suffering, and smaller contributions combine towards that outcome - meaning you can donate any amount towards what ever outcome matters most to you.

Our next community visit is Hope Vale on 3 - 4 November, with funding closing on 28 October. You choose the amount you give and whether it’s a one-off or recurring contribution.

Some partnerships just rock. 💎🧡

We want to give a huge shoutout to The Crystal Caves for their ongoing commitment to Remote Animal Assistance and the donations they continue to make towards our work.

Support like this means so much because it helps us keep showing up for animals in remote Far North Queensland communities through rescue, prevention and community support.

And if you haven’t visited The Crystal Caves yet, they’re well worth adding to your Atherton Tablelands list.

Just over an hour from Cairns, their incredible man-made cave experience is home to more than 600 crystals and prehistoric fossils across 300 square metres of interactive displays - and yes, you can touch and photograph them.

It’s also one of those places that genuinely welcomes the whole family, including the furry and feathered members. 🐾

We’re incredibly grateful to businesses like The Crystal Caves who continue to back RAA and the work we’re doing in remote communities.

Thank you for continuing to be part of our village. 💎🐾

One supporter sent $40 with a message saying they hoped it would help a little towards the total. 🐾 And that's exactly how our Impact Buckets work. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us reach the next treatment.

When you put $5 into the parasite prevention bucket, your contribution joins other gifts. Five $5 donations add up to $25, which funds one month of parasite protection for a community dog.

RAA delivers that funded care during a community prevention visit, helping dogs stay protected against fleas, ticks and worms.

We’re returning to Hope Vale on 3 & 4 November, and our first goal is to fund 100 one-month treatments. Funding for this visit closes on Wednesday 28 October. So far, we've funded 6 treatments towards our goal of 100, and we'd love your help to close the gap.

You can make a one-off donation or choose to give regularly, with the option to cancel recurring contributions at any time.

The two sisters we met in Pormpuraaw lit up when their dogs came close. 🐾

They welcomed our team and told us about their family and the dogs they’d loved over the years. Soldier stayed tucked beside one sister’s wheelchair while we talked.

Their stories were a lovely reminder of the strong bonds between people and their animals.

Your donation helps RAA reach more families with preventative care for the animals they love. Through the parasite prevention bucket, contributions combine until each $25 funds another month of protection for a community dog.

Our next visit is Hope Vale on 3 - 4 November, and funding closes on Wednesday 28 October. You can help us bring that care to the next community with an amount that suits you.

Want to help without adopting the whole litter? 😂🐾

You can!

Every donation helps us fund the things these puppies and other remote community dogs need to keep living happy and healthy lives in their communities, from parasite prevention and parvovirus vaccinations to desexing.

You don’t have to fund an entire outcome yourself. Small contributions are pooled together through our Impact Buckets until there's enough to fund the full treatment or service.

So if your heart says “take them all home” but your house says “absolutely not”... this is a pretty good compromise. 🧡
