How you can help
Although Oxford University provides invaluable intellectual and institutional support, it cannot fund our appeals. For help in delivering WildCRU’s 2020 Vision we turn to our extended family of colleagues, collaborators, students and supporters. We will be delighted to hear from anyone who wants to help, whether as collaborators, potential graduate students or benefactors.
In addition to our ongoing appeal for support to our core staff and emergency project fund, our current priority is to raise urgent funds for WildCRU’s long term study on badgers in Wytham Woods, approaching it’s 30th year. Please contact our office if you have any queries.
If you are looking for giving methods to WildCRU and how to give tax efficiently from your country, please see the University of Oxford’s pages on tax-efficient giving. If you would like to consider WildCRU in your will please see the University of Oxford’s pages on legacies and bequests.
