    Beschreibung

    This is a registered animal welfare charity on the beautiful island of Antigua in the eastern Caribbean, located approximately 250 miles south east of Puerto Rico. The charity has been in existence since 1991. We operate a small-animal (dogs & cats) shelter, pet adoption programs, humane education, low-cost spay/neuter clinics, in addition to a donkey sanctuary where we offer a permanent home to approximately 100 donkeys.

    We work hard but we love what we do. Caring for the animals, including the donkeys, is a very calming and happy experience for our volunteers and for the animals themselves! Our volunteers are able to offer the animals time and attention that we sometimes are too busy to provide them. Our volunteers always seem to enjoy themselves and want to return.

    We are located in a rural area and although there is a bus to town, it does not operate very frequently. We suggest consideration be given to renting a car and can help arrange a reduced rate. Antigua has many wonderful beaches and activities such as swimming with sting rays, kayaking and zip-lining.

    We pick up and deliver volunteers to and from the airport which is about half an hour away. We ask that volunteers avoid arriving or departing on Sunday and Monday.

    Although no longer required to enter our country, all volunteers staying in our accommodation must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 and our Government's Covid-19 protocols, as announced from time-to-time, must be followed.
