A big happy ‘International Volunteer Day’ to our incredible team at PVAS. 
 
Possum Valley is run entirely by volunteers, with over thirty people supporting the Sanctuary on a regular basis in a number of ways.

The PVAS team clean enclosures, feed animals, run tours, wash laundry, chop vegetables, fundraise, hold bake sales, create merchandise, drive animals to appointments, facilitate workshops, care for the gardens… the list goes on!







If you are interested in becoming a volunteer and can commit to two shifts minimum per month, please drop us a line and we can let you know of the next ‘New Voli Info Session’ – info@possumvalley.com
