Neither the original nor the Guardian republication includes a fundraising link, although the text points out that Apopo depends on donations for its rat programs. Here's the page for "adopting" a hero rat, with link to giving annually rather than monthly as that requires.

APOPO is not good at collecting funds. I had to go to some trouble to contribute to them last year.
