Cat Rescue Project Manager

Rags To Riches Cat Rescue is a volunteer-run, federally registered charity with a big mission: to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome forgotten cats and kittens abandoned across southwestern Ontario’s rural communities.

Many of the cats we save have been dumped, abused, or left to fend for themselves in harsh conditions — freezing winters, predator-filled woods, or remote areas where help never comes. With zero government funding and limited resources, our small but dedicated team works around the clock to give these animals what every living being deserves: safety, medical care, love, and a second chance at life.

Every cat in our care is spayed or neutered, fully vetted, and given the individualized attention they need to heal and thrive. We also work tirelessly to combat overpopulation and educate the community about proper cat care and welfare.

In 2025, 257 cats found their forever homes through our rescue! In the first seven months of 2026 alone, another 316 cats found their forever homes! This is a true testament to what compassion, resilience, and a caring community can achieve when we come together.

We are seeking a project manager to oversee the shelter from afar! This is a fully virtual position. Responsibilities include managing the volunteer calendar and ensuring there is a key lead scheduled for each shift; overseeing key lead administrative tasks to ensure they are completed; and delegating daily tasks to the key leads. R2R uses Facebook Messenger as our primary communication platform, and you will be added to a few chats with board/admin members, key leads, and the shelter managers. You will be provided with a detailed breakdown of the shelter tasks the key leads are responsible for upon joining. We are essentially looking for someone who is able to bug people for results! ;) We are very open to questions and are happy to provide any support needed. In exchange, we hope to find a dedicated volunteer who is willing to commit some time to help to save the cats! If you are interested in this position, please fill out our Volunteer Application today! Under the "If you selected Other, please list any other areas where you can help." question, please add "Project Manager". Thank you for your interest in helping to save cats' lives!
