Can I send a charity gift last minute?
Can I send a charity gift last minute?
Yes — that is what e-certificate gifts are for. Pick a costed animal-rescue gift (from £5), add the recipient's name, and the personalised e-certificate is emailed within minutes of your donation completing. Forward it or print it: works on Christmas Eve, birthday mornings, and the anniversary you just remembered.
Minutes, not days
There is no post and no dispatch window: World Animal Rescue Network emails the certificate as soon as payment completes. The fastest thoughtful gift you can send is about two minutes away.
How to make last-minute feel personal
Match the animal to the person — dog person, cat person, secret sloth person — and the certificate reads like you planned it for weeks. Add their name and the occasion at checkout; print the certificate and slip it into a card if you’re seeing them in person.
The best last-minute tags
The classics: £10 feeds a rescue dog for a week, £12 vaccinates a kitten, £25 sees a hedgehog through winter, £25 gives a rescued bear a spa day. Monthly sponsorships (from £30) make it the gift that keeps arriving.
