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 monthly giving.

Guide 10

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.

Guide 11

Monthly Versus One-Off from the United States

One-off gifts suit urgent appeals at adopt a tiger. Monthly at monthly giving or symbolic adoption at symbolic adoption builds predictable income for vaccination rounds and rehabilitation. Checkout accepts USD; neither route implies ownership of an individual animal.

Wildlife guide

Tiger

A tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest living cat species, a striped, solitary carnivore native to Asia; the Sumatran tiger of Indonesia and the Malayan tiger of Malaysia are two of the most endangered surviving populations, both listed as Critically Endangered.

Country programme

Indonesia

Indonesia is a Southeast Asian archipelago of more than 17,000 islands, home to Bornean and Sumatran orangutans, Sumatran tigers, Javan and Sumatran rhinos, the Komodo dragon and the sun bear; its wildlife is under sustained pressure from palm-oil and pulpwood deforestation, the illegal pet trade, and one of the world's largest contributions to marine plastic.

Country programme

Malaysia

Malaysia is a Southeast Asian range state for Bornean orangutans (Sabah), sun bears, Sunda pangolins, clouded leopards and the Malayan tiger; it is a top-tier transit country for trafficked wildlife, with Kuala Lumpur's airports and the Port Klang container hub repeatedly identified by UNODC as wildlife-crime chokepoints.
