ISCOWP rescues cows from exploitation and gives them a lifetime of love and care. You can help and join our mission to protect cows by adopting a cow today! Check out the 4 newcomers below. You can make your adoption or gift a tribute to someone special in your life with our e-card tribute option.
Don’t forget that charitable donations can be deducted up to 30-60% of your adjusted gross income and are one of the most generous income tax deductions of all. ISCOWP is a 501(c3) organization; your gift is tax-deductible EIN # 23-2604082.
You can help us give a peaceful and joyous life to a cow far from the exploitative meat and dairy industries when you adopt. You can adopt a cow for one year, ongoing, or a lifetime, and thus participate in cow protection! All the adoption options are explained below. The $50,000 Matching Gift Challenge, the additional $15,000 Matching Gift Challenge, and the Feed the Cows Campaign were all completed by YOU before their deadlines! We are humbled, inspired, and encouraged by your support as we enter ISCOWP’s 36th year protecting cows and spreading the message of diet change. Together, we are carrying on the mission of cow protection. Without YOU, our 36th year would not be possible. Throughout the years, there have been many challenges, but you have always been there to help us through. From the depths of our hearts, we thank you again and again. A prosperous, joyful, and blessed New Year to all of you!
It costs the ISCOWP sanctuary an average of $500 to maintain a healthy cow for one year. The average lifespan of a cow is twenty years. Thus, maintaining a cow for its entire life costs $10,000. However, when $6,325.00 is placed in our fixed deposit, that will generate enough interest to maintain a cow for life. When the cow passes, the funds remain in the ISCOWP account to maintain another cow in your name.
One Year Adoption has 3 donation options: 1) $501 one time, 2) $41.75 monthly subscription for 12 months, and 3) $125.25 quarterly subscription for 4 quarters. Ongoing Adoption has the same donation options, except your plan will automatically renew until you cancel. We can cancel for you at your request. Lifetime adoption is available with a one-time donation of $6,325.00, a yearly subscription donation of $1, 265.00 for five years, 12 quarterly subscription donations of $527.08, and a weekly subscription donation of $25 for 253 weeks. For a custom lifetime adoption plan, please contact ISCOWP.
All adopters receive an adoption certificate, a current cow photo, four video updates via email each year of the adoption, and an optional subscription to ISCOWP’s monthly e-newsletter. You may visit your cow by making an appointment at least 48 hours in advance. Lifetime adopters receive quarterly video updates for the lifetime of their cow and an emailed video of Arati blessings in their honor offered to Lord Giriraj and the cows for six years.
