FOSTERING PROGRAMS
Become a sponsor of a wolf or dog!
Would you like to be more involved in the life of one of our wolves or dogs? With a sponsorship starting at €35 per month, you support the care and upkeep of your favorite animal – for a year or longer. A sponsorship or friendship also makes a wonderful and meaningful gift.
Your benefits for your sponsorship:
- Your personal sponsorship certificate
- Regular newsletters with news about your sponsored animal
- A voucher for one of the visiting programs "Adventure Tour", "Howl Night", or "Advent Evening"
- Large-format WSC photo calendar, annually by post
Donations for sponsorships are no longer fully tax-deductible due to a decision of the tax office. The new regulation stipulates that the value of thank-you services (e.g. calendars, visits) must be deducted from the tax-deductible amount. We have therefore reacted and adapted the program - so that your sponsorship remains deductible to the highest possible extent in the future.
General donations to the WSC as well as "Small" or "Large friendships" are not affected by this and continue to be tax-deductible in full.
Become a friend of one of our wolves or dogs
You can become a "Big friend" for € 15,00/monthly or a "Small friend" for € 10,00/monthly.
Optimal keeping of our animal partners is costly ...
Optimal wolf or dog keeping needs:
- big, well maintained enclosures with retreat areas
- occupation by the human caregivers: regular enrichment, "brain jogging" and the incentives for physical movement
- optimal veterinary care
- diverse and appropriate food
Together this all costs approximately € 30,000,- per animal per year.
