For any communications about World Animal Day, we will only contact you via email or, very occasionally, by sending you a letter through the post.

To respond to your queries, we will contact you via the medium you used to contact us or by a medium you have indicated you would like us to respond with. If we need to contact you for any administrative purposes then we will usually send an email to you.
World Animal Day will never call you to ask for a donation and will never employ a third party to do so on our behalf.
