Board Director (Voluntary)

Moreton Bay Wildlife Hospital Foundation is a community founded, not-for-profit organisation with a vision to improve outcomes for native wildlife in the City of Moreton Bay through fundraising, advocacy, research and education.

We will achieve this vision by establishing a dedicated native wildlife hospital for injured and orphaned native animals where they can be treated by highly skilled veterinary professionals and then be assessed for rehabilitation or release.

Overview The Moreton Bay Wildlife Hospital Foundation seeks to recruit a new board member who can contribute to realising the vision of constructing the Moreton Bay Wildlife Hospital. Established in 2022, the current Board comprises five members. The addition of a new board member aims to enhance the overall skill set, filling gaps within our board skill set matrix and complementing the expertise of existing members.
