Support Needed

Each month, ACRES:

  1. Handles 1,200 wildlife rescue hotline calls;
  2. Rescues over 260 wild animals;
  3. Cares for 120 animals rescued from illegal wildlife trade;
  4. Manages over 52 animal human-wildlife interactions; and
  5. Educates and empowers over 1,000 individuals.

In 2023 alone, we reached over 32,550 people through our wildlife rescue efforts, humane education programs, and advocacy for animal welfare.

 

We want to do more to end animal cruelty and be there for every animal in need. But as we help more, the costs increase— our current monthly operating expenses are $100,000.

Your valuable donation will help animals in numerous ways; including directly saving lives. If you would like to learn more about how to support the cause and projects, please write to fundraising@acres.org.sg.

 

Donations are eligible for a 250% tax deduction. 

To qualify for tax deduction, please provide the correct Tax Reference Numbers (NRIC/FIN/UEN) when making the donation or by emailing admin@acres.org.sg with the information. More information can be found at our FAQ section below, including ACRES’ privacy policy.

To reduce environmental impact, we stopped issuing physical donation receipts. Please provide your email address to receive e-receipts instead.

Donation FAQs

Are my donations to ACRES tax deductible?

Yes, donations to ACRES are eligible for 250% tax deduction.

For example, if you donate $100 to ACRES, $250 will be deducted from your taxable income (not your final tax amount).

Individuals and businesses must provide your tax reference number (NRIC/FIN/UEN) in order to be given tax deductions on your donation. You do not need to declare the donation amount in your income tax return. Your donation details will given to IRAS and the tax deductible for your donations will be automatically reflected in your tax assessments.

How do I get tax deduction for my donation?

You may either provide your tax reference number (i.e. NRIC/FIN/UEN) when making the donation or you may email admin@acres.org.sg with your NRIC/FIN/UEN details to submit for tax deduction.

Donations without tax reference number or which are incomplete / invalid are considered non-tax deductible unless requested otherwise.

Please ensure your donation and details reach us by 30 Dec 2023 for tax deduction to be allowed in your tax assessment for the Year of Assessment (YA) 2023.​

Do I have to provide my NRIC/FIN?

To comply with the Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) guidelines, your full NRIC/FIN will only be collected if you require tax deduction for your donation. Should you not wish to receive tax deduction, you will not be required to submit your NRIC/FIN.

What percentage of funds raised goes to the animals?

We value your support and ensure that your donations are used wisely. In past years, 86% of our expenditure went directly to our animal protection programmes, as per our financial reports.

What will my personal data be used for?

When dealing with your personal information, we observe our obligations under the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), as well other relevant legislation. ACRES’s PDPA Privacy Policy aims to help you understand how we will collect, use, disclose and protect your personal data. Details can be found here.

Do I need to inform ACRES in advance that I am leaving a donation in my will?

We understand that estate planning is a private matter and it is your choice. However, if you wish, you can let us know of your intention to leave a legacy to ACRES. It would allow us to thank you and we can include your support in our long-term planning.
