      For 40 years dholes have been living at Tierpark Berlin. Now, these critically endangered, bright red wild dogs are set to live in an even bigger space by gaining access on to an additional enclosure by autumn 2024. Before they can move, this enclosure - previously home to wolves - has to be updated and adapted to the needs of the dholes. To allow the creation of a new home as close to nature as possible, our colleagues and us would be very happy for any support.

      Frequently asked questions about donations

      Do you have any questions or would you like information on current donation options? In this FAQ we answer your most important questions about donations and show you how your help really gets through.

      • Sponsorships and donations are intended to benefit the animals and help with the maintenance of the grounds. Therefore, sponsors and donors do not receive free admission, as this would greatly reduce the impact of the financial support provided.

      • Yes, all donations made to Tierpark Berlin are tax deductible.

      • For one-off donations of up to €300, you do not need a donation receipt. Up to this amount, German tax offices accept the cash deposit slip or transfer confirmation from your bank as proof of the donation. For donations of €300 or more, a donation receipt will automatically be sent to you in the spring of the following year.

        Please note that donation receipts can only be issued in the name of the account holder.

      • A donation receipt can only be issued to the person or company that actually made the donation (account holder of the donation). Only the person who actually made the donation can claim a donation for tax purposes. This means that it is not possible to issue a donation in another name for tax reasons. This also applies to donations in the name of third parties.

      • You can use the online donation form for your donation or transfer the amount to the

        Berliner Sparkasse
        IBAN: DE84 1005 0000 0191 1760 36
        BIC: BELADEBEXXX

      • When you make a donation via our donation form, your account will be debited automatically. If you do not complete the form, we can also debit a donation directly from your account or set up a standing order at your explicit request. Please inform us of this request in writing. A bank transfer form can also be sent to you on request. Of course, you can also arrange this directly with your bank.

      • If your account details change after you have set up a standing order via the Tierpark website, please contact helfen@tierpark-berlin.de and request the deletion of the existing data in writing. You can then set up a new standing order yourself via your bank or send us your new account details to update them.

      • Standing orders set up via the Tierpark website can be revoked. To do this, please write to helfen@tierpark-berlin.de. Standing orders that you have set up via your bank can only be terminated there.

      • Thank you very much for your offer and willingness to help! Our animals’ diets and habitats are governed by a very strict hygiene and quality concept to avoid any possible health and safety risks. Ensuring that food and material donations adhere to this concept would require a great deal of administrative effort.  For this reason, we are unfortunately unable to accept donations of food and goods.

        However, you can support Tierpark Berlin online with a “digital food basket”. You can find more information here.

      • Yes, Tierpark Berlin would be grateful if you would like to ask your mourners to support Tierpark Berlin with a donation in lieu of flowers or wreaths. These donations are generally not earmarked for a specific purpose and your support will be used exactly where it is most urgently needed. If a specific use is desired, we will be happy to advise you. Please note “In memory of NAME OF DECEASED PERSON” in the purpose of the funeral donation. We will be happy to provide you with information on the total donation amount on request.

      • Here you will always find all the latest information about the various donation projects. Supporters are also kept up to date with the latest news from Zoo, Aquarium and Tierpark Berlin twice a year via the exclusive “ZooMomente” magazine.

      In addition to donations for Tierpark Berlin and its important projects, you can also support the work of Tierpark Berlin by sponsoring animals, trees or benches. In the sponsorship FAQ you will find answers to the most important questions about support through sponsorship!
