Volunteering
Current Volunteer Opportunities
Contact us if you would like to give us a hand.
We are currently looking for the following volunteers Australia wide:
● Fundraising coordinator (identifying potential grants, writing grant submissions,
reporting, analysis and planning of activities)
Please note: The Foundation does not have any opportunities that involve volunteering with live turtles (e.g. rehabilitation, feeding, releasing turtles).
General Volunteer
As a not-for-profit organisation, we often have tasks that we struggle to complete. General volunteers assist the team with various tasks and duties. Some of
the tasks that general volunteers may undertake are administration tasks, dealing with inquiries from the public and other stakeholders, and assisting with stalls at community events and market days.
Stranding Volunteer
The Sea Turtle Foundation coordinates marine animal stranding response in the Townsville Region in collaboration with the Queensland Government. In order to respond to the calls for both dead and live animals throughout the region, the Foundation
uses a call list of trained volunteers to assist.
No prior knowledge of Sea Turtles is required, however, all volunteers are required to undertake training prior to attending standings. It is necessary for volunteers to have their own transport.
