Making a difference in Tauranga

Volunteer with us

Under New Zealand’s Orange traffic light system, our Centres are open to the public, however appointments must be made for adoption enquiries, foster appointments and volunteering interest. Please note that members of the public do not require a vaccine pass for entry to an SPCA Centre.

If you are interested in adopting, fostering or volunteering, please contact us via the website or by phoning us to make an appointment, our team will be able to discuss next steps. In line with Government regulations, physical distancing and face coverings measures are still required and must be adhered to when entering our workplaces. If you have a face mask exemption, please bring it with you.

SPCA's Tauranga Centre is one of our busiest centres, with just over 2,000 animals coming through our doors every year. We pride ourselves in best practice operations striving to ensure positive outcomes for the animals that come into our care.

The support from our community is very strong and our Op Shop supports the work we do, with all profits helping the animals we care for.
