Event information

What is Wear it Wild?

Wear it Wild is WWF’s annual fundraising event where we’re asking you to wear an item of wildlife-inspired clothing and raise money to help protect our incredible world.

We want to see you wear it. Brave it. Rock it. Nail it. Boss it. Strut it. We want to see you work it. Because if we’re going to save our world, we need to be fiercer, braver and louder than we’ve ever been. So from the playground to the workplace, no matter how you Wear it Wild, get fierce for your world.

Signing up is free and we’ll send you a fantastic fundraising pack to help you plan your event.
