## What Pangolin Sponsorship Through WARN Means
Pangolin sponsorship is recurring USD support for seizure triage, rehabilitation and release — not individual pangolin ownership.

## How to Start Pangolin Sponsorship from the US
Visit /adopt/pangolin, choose monthly or one-off from $5/month, select USD at checkout.

## What Your Pangolin Sponsorship Pays For
Quarantine equipment, veterinary triage, feeding trials, release transport and customs detection support.

## Why Pangolins Need Urgent Sponsorship
All eight species are CITES Appendix I — trafficking continues despite the ban. Live seizures need immediate triage.

## Malaysia and Indonesia Programmes
See /rescue/pangolin-rescue-malaysia and /appeals/pangolins.

## Monthly Versus One-Off Pangolin Sponsorship
Monthly income maintains specialist capacity year-round. $600 can help stock quarantine after a trafficking seizure.

## Gift Pangolin Sponsorship for US Occasions
Checkout at /adopt/pangolin, email WARN for a certificate.

## US Tax Status
Pangolin sponsorship is not US tax-deductible. See /rescue/adopt-a-pangolin-us.

## Why US Donors Choose WARN — Transparent Partner Grants
WARN is a UK Community Interest Company global not-for-profit — not a US 501(c)(3). US donations are not tax-deductible; you receive a payment receipt for your records. WARN is a registered UK Community Interest Company (Company no. 17298990) and is not a charity, so it cannot claim Gift Aid. The donation case is transparent partner-led welfare where support reaches practical field needs. Gifts fund WARN's 17-country partner network across South Asia, Southeast Asia, East Africa, Southern Africa and South America through vetted local partners — not WARN-run sanctuaries. Give in USD at /donate or monthly at /donate/monthly.

## What Your USD Gift Buys on the Ground
Roughly $20–30 funds one street dog through catch, neuter, rabies vaccination and return where partner clinics operate. $125 supports a small clinic day. $600 helps stock quarantine after a trafficking seizure. Monthly gifts let partners plan multi-year programmes instead of crisis-only response.

## Monthly Versus One-Off from the United States
One-off gifts suit urgent appeals at /adopt/pangolin/. Monthly at /donate/monthly or symbolic adoption at /adopt builds predictable income for vaccination rounds and rehabilitation. Checkout accepts USD; neither route implies ownership of an individual animal.

## What WARN funds
- Pangolin quarantine and low-stress recovery equipment.
- Veterinary triage training for live wildlife seizures.
- Release monitoring and field transport.
- Customs and ranger support identifying pangolins in transit.
