John—thousands of elephants are killed every year, slaughtered for their tusks for the illegal wildlife trade. Vulnerable wildlife—like elephants and many other species—will not survive without our help.
In honor of World Elephant Day on August 12, we're hoping to find 180 people who will create a safer world for wildlife by symbolically adopting an elephant with a monthly gift. |

When you start your monthly gift, you’ll make a huge difference for threatened wildlife and their habitats while sustaining WWF's critical conservation work around the globe. |

Hi John,
Did you know that the bond between a mother elephant and her calf is one of the closest of any mammal? Calves rely completely on their mothers as they learn to survive in the wild.
Tragically, poaching for the illegal elephant ivory trade leaves many young elephants orphaned and facing an uncertain future. A staggering number of elephants are killed each year for their tusks. Poaching—and habitat loss and fragmentation resulting in increased human-wildlife conflict—threaten the survival of so many species, including tigers and black rhinos.
I think World Elephant Day on Monday is the ideal moment to create a safer world for vulnerable wildlife everywhere.
Make a monthly gift now to protect precious wildlife like elephants. When you start your monthly donation, you'll protect threatened species and their habitats from many threats—and you'll help us reach our goal of 180 World Elephant Day donors. |

As a monthly donor, your ongoing support will make a lasting difference for wildlife and wild places around the world, every day. Giving monthly is an easy, efficient, and effective way to protect nature.
Not only will you help stop elephant poaching and foster sustainable coexistence between elephants and people... you'll also help to protect and restore fragile ecosystems, tackle the climate crisis, save endangered wildlife, and find practical and beneficial ways for both people and nature to thrive.
For World Elephant Day, I hope you’ll help us reach our goal and make our critical conservation work possible by symbolically adopting an elephant and becoming a monthly member. |
