In the footsteps of giants:
40 years battling extinction, 40 years left to win
Elephants, rhinos, and tigers are facing an urgent crisis. Every day, around 100 African elephants are killed, largely due to the illegal ivory trade, with their numbers having plummeted by 70% in the last 40 years. Rhinos are also suffering, with nearly 10,000 killed by poachers in the past decade, as human encroachment devastates their habitats. Tigers, with fewer than 5,500 left in the wild, are being driven to extinction due to illegal breeding farms and a thriving black market for their body parts.

Tell me more about Gift AidWhat is Gift Aid?
Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we’re entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.
All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.
The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.
I confirm this is my own money and is not part of a funeral collection.
I confirm that I am a UK taxpayer and I understand that, if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year, it is my responsibility to pay any difference.
