Over het programma

We are looking for the active participation of volunteers to collaborate in this wonderful place. You will be able to help in the first animal sanctuary in Spain. The main objective is to rescue and recover animals that are victims of exploitation. This objective is complemented, in addition, with the promotion of veganism, the fight for the recognition of Animal Rights and the fight against speciesism.


Your daily life will be in a natural space in contact with a great variety of animals. Most of the animals are rescued from situations of oppression and mistreatment, and saved from certain death at the hands of their exploiters. Come, share, help and contribute with your ideas.

At the sanctuary, each inhabitant is cared for according to his or her specific physical and psychological needs and has the opportunity to develop as an individual according to his or her nature, personality and interests. Here, their rights are respected and they can live safely for the rest of their lives.


The sanctuary project has enabled the rescue, and subsequent housing in its facilities, of more than 200 animals that were facing certain death in slaughterhouses or other extermination centers.


In addition, we carry out important social and awareness-raising work, carrying out educational activities aimed at children and adults that promote the values of respect, justice and equality, extending them to all individuals without distinction of species. To this end, we make use of specific instruments designed for this purpose such as talks in educational or occupational centers, street campaigns or the edition of our own didactic material.


The daily activities are:


  • Animal care: feeding, supervision of their welfare needs, cures and treatments including visits to the veterinarian.

  • Construction and maintenance of facilities

  • Orchard, gardening and forest, including the management of firewood for heating in winter.

  • Maintenance of parks (areas where the animals live), both terrestrial and ponds.

  • Logistics: food collection at Mercabarna, collection of donations, shopping, garbage disposal, in some cases driving to the veterinary hospital. Car care and maintenance

  • Household care: cleaning the house and apartments, cooking, washing machines, porch maintenance and taking the dogs out.


Important Considerations for Prospective Volunteers


Before you commit to this opportunity, there are a few important considerations that you should keep in mind.


First of all, it's important to note that the animals at this sanctuary are considered farm animals. This means that the work involved in caring for them can be very physically demanding. Volunteers are often required to perform tasks such as cleaning stalls, carrying heavy bags of feed, and providing medical care to sick or injured animals. If you're not prepared for the physical demands of this kind of work, it may not be the right opportunity for you.


Another important consideration for prospective volunteers is the sanctuary's vegan policy. While you're volunteering at the sanctuary, you'll be expected to abstain from consuming any animal products or wearing any clothing made from animal materials. This policy is in place to ensure that the animals at the sanctuary are treated with the utmost respect and compassion, and it's essential that all volunteers respect this policy while they're on site.


If you're mentally and physically prepared for the challenges of volunteering at a farm animal sanctuary, we encourage you to apply for this opportunity. Volunteers are typically required to commit to a minimum of two weeks on site, although longer stays are always welcome.


While you're volunteering, you'll have the opportunity to work closely with the animals at the sanctuary and contribute to their care and well-being. It's a deeply rewarding experience, but it's also a significant responsibility. If you're ready to take on this challenge, we welcome you to apply to be a volunteer at our animal sanctuary in a village near Barcelona.


Once you have reviewed the activities and all the conditions, if you really see yourself qualified, you can tell us and you can apply, remember that when you book you will make a first payment here, then immediately we will ask you for another payment by mail of 210, and the last payment will be at the center on the day of arrival.

Our projects offer volunteers the opportunity to meet, share and participate in social and environmental projects. These projects demand educational and recreational activities that benefit communities of different cultures and customs, communities with economic difficulties and different degrees of social exclusion.
