WE NEED YOU!

Every rescue relies on more than just a call for help.

ORRCA’s work is powered by trained rescuers, specialised equipment, rapid emergency response systems and a dedicated network of volunteers and supporters.

Your help funds critical rescue and disentanglement operations, rehabilitation efforts for sick and injured marine mammals, volunteer training programs and the equipment needed to respond safely and effectively in challenging coastal environments.

It also supports community education initiatives that help raise awareness about marine mammal welfare, ocean conservation and how the public can assist in protecting Australia’s marine life.

From emergency callouts to long-term rehabilitation and conservation efforts, every contribution helps ensure ORRCA can continue responding when marine mammals need help most.
