The perfect gift to show your love
Every day, animals arrive at RSPCA South Australia in need of help. Some are frightened or sick, while others struggle to trust again after all they’ve endured. These are the animals who need more time, more care, and more compassion to heal. With hundreds in our care daily, many require specialised treatment, encouragement, and experienced people who won’t give up on them. Your support can make all that possible.
When you Sponsor a Day for RSPCA South Australia, you’re helping give these animals the help they need to recover. Your kindness can provide vet care for the injured, enrichment for the anxious, and one-on-one support for those learning to trust again. You’re helping them feel safe, loved, and ready for a second chance at life.
Sponsor a Day today and stand beside the animals who need someone on their side.

Your impact
Your sponsorship means the world to us and the animals in our care. By choosing to Sponsor A Day you are helping fund important care and support for animals in need.
Providing a haven for homeless animals
Our facilities, animal care and foster programs are entirely funded by generous donations. On a normal day we have around 600 animals in our care, with half of these at our O’Halloran Hill animal care campus and more in foster care. Your kind sponsorship helps support our operations and allows us to give the most vulnerable animals a safe, comfortable and loving place of refuge.
Nurturing the underdogs (…and cats)
Many of the animals in our care need extra love, patience and specialist support to overcome their trauma. With your compassion, we can rebuild their trust in humans and help grow their social skills to get them adoption ready. Your sponsorship will ensure that all our animals who need a bit more support have extra hours of care, love and attention from our super special team of humans.
Sparking joy!
Animals belong in loving homes, but while they’re waiting to find theirs, you can be their sunshine. Your sponsorship will help brighten the day of the animals in our care by helping to fund play packs, toys, treats, walkies and grooming to enrich their day in care.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I get when I sponsor a day?

- printable pdf card to commemorate your special sponsorship. These cards include blank space for you to write your own personal message. This will be sent via email shortly after you make your purchase so you can print it at home.
- A special thank you video will be sent to you via email on your sponsored day to celebrate the impact you’ve had.
Is my sponsorship tax deductable?
Yes! Sponsor A Day is classified as a donation which means your purchase is tax deductible. You will be sent a receipt for your donation via email after your payment is processed.
Why can’t I sponsor a certain date?
If the date you’d like to sponsor isn’t available, this is because it’s sold out. Don’t worry! You can still pick another date to sponsor, and you’ll get your certificate of purchase straight away.
What does my money go towards?
Your sponsorship helps fund operations at RSPCA South Australia and allows us to continue providing support and care for South Australia’s most vulnerable and in need animals. By sponsoring a day, you’re contributing to South Australia’s longest operating animal welfare charity and helping keep our doors open so we can continue to prevent cruelty to animals and fight for improved animal rights.
Why do you need to know the reason I am sponsoring?
When you choose to sponsor a day, we’ll ask you if you are sponsoring as a gift, in memory or for yourself. We ask this because it determines what kind of certificate and communication you receive from us.
What if I want to sponsor with another person?
If you want to sponsor a day with another person, you can include both your names within the ‘First Name’ field, and both names will display on your certificate.
How else can I help?
Sponsoring a day is a great place to start, but there are lots of other ways you can help support RSPCA South Australia. For more ways to donate visit: https://www.rspcasa.org.au/donate-options
