What
will I help fund?
JGI
Chimpanzee Eden is the home of all our rescued
orphan chimpanzees, through sustainable income
generated by tourism to the sanctuary the well
being of the chimpanzees are secured, however
your contribution is essential to provide the
chimpanzees with special care and rehabilitation
activities.
JGI
South Africa’s rescue and natural range
protection programs also depend solely on your contribution. In the past 15 months the organization has relocated 17
chimpanzees to their new home, JGI Chimpanzee
Eden. 12 of these chimpanzees come from natural
range areas, these countries do not have the ability to
create their own sanctuary and desperately need
help to save their great apes. Without your contribution the sanctuary will only provide
care and not a solution to the problem in the
natural ranges.
Adopting
a chimp ensures that JGI South Africa can do
more rescues more often, can develop technology
to assist in determining wild ape numbers, and
develop methods of chimpanzee reintroduction and
protection in natural ranges such as in Cabinda,
Angola.
What
do you get?

South Africa offers you an unrivaled experience
to see your chimpanzee on a daily basis.
