Over het programma

Combine your passion for animals and desire to give back to society by improving the unfortunate situation of abandoned street animals in Greece. During this volunteering program, you can help to look for a new safe and beautiful home for stray dogs.

About the Project

The program is managed by a local in Greece at the beautiful Crete Island, that aims to improve the situation of animals living on the streets. Due to the amount of work that it takes to keep the program running, the help provided by volunteers is always greatly appreciated. Animals are only mediated when a family has the correct surrounding for a dog.

What you can expect

Before starting your volunteer work project, you will receive an orientation by our local staff. The local stuff is run by english speaking people. They are very happy to welcome volunteers from all over the world. Usually you will be in the program with other volunteers. The project can be reached in a few minutes by bus.

You will help from 6 am (during high season and climate) or 8/9 am (low season) till 2 pm or you can do the afternoon shift. Your schedule is flexible, depending on the volunteer. Like this, you will have time to enjoy your afternoon at the beach.
