Protect Animals and Maximize Your Impact

Friend,

As we approach the end of the year, it’s the perfect time to reflect on all the strides we’ve made together. World Animal Protection has always been on the frontlines, fighting for animals. This year was no exception with our team working tirelessly around the world to ensure that animals everywhere are treated with the respect and care they deserve. We couldn’t have done it without you.

These next few weeks are critical, both for our goals and your financial goals for the upcoming tax season. Donations made before December 31st are not just good for animals, but they can also have positive implications for your upcoming tax returns.

Our Smart Giving Suite makes it easy to contribute tax-smart gifts that support the protection of animals worldwide. Here are some ways you can give back:

Make a grant from a Donor-Advised Fund: Use funds you’ve already set aside to give today to make a lasting difference in the lives of animals. 

Donate stocks or mutual funds: Save on two types of taxes and get a full deduction for the value of your gift.

Donate cryptocurrency: We now accept gifts of cryptocurrency! Donate your appreciated cryptocurrency to see a reduction on future tax returns. 

Give directly from an IRA: Donors 70 ½ or older can reduce their taxable income (and if you need to meet a Required Minimum Distribution, IRA gifts can count towards those as well!).

We hope that you consider including animal protection in your end-of-year giving plans. As always, we recommend that you consult with a financial advisor to understand your own tax liability before giving to charity.

Thank you for your support!
