The work we do to conserve endangered species, safeguard threatened habitats and address global environmental threats would not be possible without building strong and long-lasting relationships with our supporters and other partners.
Campaigning for change
We rely on our dedicated campaigners to support our work by contacting politicians about the issues they care about. Their action really can help to bring about the change that’s needed. We also work with politicians of all parties at the devolved, UK and European levels − helping parliaments and assemblies to take action on climate change, resource use and the protection of nature.
Becoming a business partner
We build rewarding partnerships with the business world − working together to deliver our vital conservation programmes and advance sustainability policy and practice.

Living a greener lifestyle
If we are to have a chance of achieving a One Planet Future, where people and nature live in harmony, every one of us will need to change the way we live. By using our online carbon footprint calculator, you can measure your ecological footprint and discover ways to live more sustainably.
Spreading the message
Now you’ve read about our work, please tell others about the environmental issues that must be addressed. Everyone needs to know about the crisis our planet is facing. And everyone can play a part in creating the solutions.
Funding our work
Most of our income comes from our dedicated members and supporters. There are many ways to give.
Become a WWF Guardian:this is a dedicated group of supporters who have collectively contributed more than £2.8 million to us since the programme was launched in 1994. Each guardian donates £1,000 or more each year to one of our key projects – focusing on where the threats to the natural world are greatest and where the funding is needed most.
Become a Conservation Champion: these are individuals who donate £10,000 or more to support our work addressing the world’s most serious environmental problems.
Their financial support is, of course, highly valued. And so is the work they do to champion our cause within their own social, business and political networks. Because many are influential figures in their own fields of expertise, their support often has a huge effect.

Give through trusts and foundations: they play a crucial role in making our global environmental work a success. Thanks to their generosity in the past year, we have been able to continue supporting a number of vital projects in regions such as the South Pacific and the Southern Oceans.

Leave a gift in your will: making a will is an important way to ensure your loved ones have a secure future. And leaving us a gift in your will is an excellent way to ensure the world they live in has a long and lasting future too.
Legacies are extremely important because they enable us to plan our work for years ahead. Many of the projects we work on need a long-term commitment from us to ensure the well-being of the people and wildlife that need our help.
Although we all have our own individual concerns about the environment, we suggest that any legacy is not restricted to a particular project. This means that we can put your gift to the best use where it is most urgently needed at the time.
Become a WWF member, adopt a wild animal or make a donation: you can give from as little as £3 a month to become a member and receive WWF Action magazine. Also for £3 a month, you can adopt everything from a tiger to an orang-utan. And one-off donations – however large or small – are also welcomed.
