Donation security

The security and confidentiality of your information is our highest priority. We use industry-standard SSL (secure socket layer) technology to protect your information and provide a safe and secure environment for online donations. We will not sell, trade or share your personal information with anyone else, nor send donor mailings on behalf of other organizations

1 FUR 1 Foundation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization (Charitable ID 46-5204545) and your generous donation is a charitable contribution. Your donation is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Upon completion of your donation, a donation receipt will be sent to you at the email address you provide on this form as your official record. Please be sure to keep a copy of your receipt for tax purposes and check with your personal tax adviser regarding the deduction of your gift.

For donors who have selected the option to give recurring monthly donations, we’ve partnered with Donately to give you full control of your preferences. Find the donation from the list on your dashboard then select ‘Manage this recurring plan’ and from the edit screen you can update the card on file, change the day of the month, edit the amount, cancel the plan, etc. All refunds are returned using the original method of payment. If you made your donation by credit card, your refund will be credited to that same credit card.
