Help Me Help Them Birthday Fundraiser

Freedom for Great Apes is the only chimpanzee sanctuary in Oregon. We provide optimal care to chimpanzees that have been rescued from the pet and entertainment industry. In light of Giving Day for Apes and my birthday on October 8th, we have set an ambitious goal of raising $25,000 for the lifetime care of Herbie, Jackson, Emma, and CJ.

Caring for chimpanzees is very expensive, $30,000 per year, per chimpanzee. Your generous donation will help us continue to provide exemplary care to the chimpanzees, including optimum nutrition, preventative and veterinary care, and an enriching environment where they can thrive.

When you donate to FGA, you’re not only supporting the chimpanzees’ current care, but you are also helping us invest in their futures. With a life expectancy of 50+ years in captivity, we must ensure we can provide the chimpanzees with the highest quality of sanctuary care for the rest of their lives.

Please help me raise the funds to continue to give our chimpanzees the best quality of life possible. On behalf of Herbie, Jackson, Emma, CJ, and in memory of our beloved Topo and family, we thank you for your donations and shares!  Grateful for you, Lesley
