For more than 60 years, Defenders of Wildlife has been supported by the generosity of our many caring members. To that end, there are a myriad of easy giving options from which you can choose - from naming us as a beneficiary in your will to a more complex trust arrangement.
We've created this easy-to-understand website to help you find the gift that's right for you. Here you can learn how to plan a gift to Defenders of Wildlife. We'll also tell you about creative giving strategies that enhance your and your family's well being, while helping Defenders.
Charitable Gift Annuity Rate Change Alert!
On July 1, 2008, rates for charitable gift annuities will drop. If you are considering a Defenders of Wildlife Charitable Gift Annuity, you may want to establish your gift before July 1, 2008 to lock in the current higher rates! Learn more »

Tip of the Day
You don't have to use cash to make a gift!
You can give us appreciated stocks, bonds or mutual fund shares instead. Your charitable deduction will be the full, fair market value of the securities, with no capital gains liability on their appreciation.
