Donate from America
If you're in the US, you can donate to Kākāpō Recovery through Global Wildlife Conservation.
Kākāpō Recovery is a fiscally sponsored program of Global Wildlife Conservation, a US non-profit 501(c)(3) organization (Tax ID 26-2887967), and all gifts are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
Note: tax-deductible receipts temporarily unavailable
We're changing the way we receive donations. Since 1990, our friends at Forest & Bird have managed our incoming donations through the Threatened Species Trust. We've grown a lot over the years and the time has come to seek new avenues for donation management.
We'll get a new system up and running soon, but as anyone who works in conservation knows, good things take time. For now, donations will go directly to DOC. And because DOC is not a charitable entity, we're unable to provide tax-deductible receipts until the new system is ready.
We’d like to thank and acknowledge Forest & Bird for their hard work over the years. Through their long-standing involvement with the Threatened Species Trust, we’ve been able to receive hundreds of thousands of dollars directly towards saving kākāpō. And thank you to you, the donors. If you have any questions about the changes, don’t hesitate to get in touch: kakaporecovery@doc.govt.nz.
