VERY IMPORTANT: We would love to offer you the opportunity and experience of caring for our Corfiot Donkeys. We do not charge you anything to join our program but you must book your own flights, accommodation and transport. All food and entertainment costs are also payable by you. We would love for you to join us.
Corfu Donkey Rescue is the only donkey rescue on the island of Corfu. Before Corfu Donkey Rescue existed, unwanted donkeys were simply abandoned or sold to dealers who exported them to Italy essentially for slaughter.
After many years of dedicated work, our donkeys deserve a comfortable retirement and this is what we try to do.
As a volunteer you will be expected to help with the day to day running of the shelter. There's a lot of cleaning up to do, along with feeding, grooming, giving medication, looking out for signs of illness or any irregularities in a donkey's behaviour. Donkey and dog walking are also important tasks.
The donkeys are divided into two sections – the stable area, which houses the donkeys requiring very close observation and intensive care; the stables also make up part of the section for our blind donkeys, which require their own, safe space; and the tent area, which houses the donkeys in better conditions or have minor ailments.
At CDR you volunteer for 5 days of the week on a rota basis so we are unable to tell you which days until you arrive. You get two full days off per week but these days are not necessarily consecutive. You may spend your free time as you wish.
Corfu is a stunningly beautiful island. It is lush and green (not typical of Greek islands) thanks to the amount of rain we get in the winter. Local resorts are Paleokastritsa which has numerous sandy beaches, boat hire, boat trips, many bars and restaurants, a reptile world and a famous monastery with stunning hill top views.
Liapades, quieter than Paleokastritsa, a pebble beach, numerous bars and restaurants. If you have hired a car or scooter the you can explore the whole island on your days off. Corfu Town is a must with its many museums, two fortresses, amazing architecture, bars, restaurants and parks. Every where you turn is a stunning view.
Arrive on any day of the year. Go straight to your booked accommodation and start volunteering the following morning at 08:30am
