Home - Ngamba Island chimpanzee Sanctuary ugandaNgamba Island

We call upon everyone to support us during this trying time of COVID19 pandemic that has affected the operations of Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary.

The operations of Ngamba Island have been dependent on 70% of tourist revenue which is at a standstill in the entire world with travel bans in different continents.

This has left us with limited income to further the operations of the sanctuary and requesting for your support to Ngamba Island Chimpanzees.

We can't do this alone but we believe together we shall be able to save and protect this endangered spiece in our care.

You can support us through in kind donations that can be delivered to our office in Entebbe - Uganda or cash contribution can be either through mobile money , Visa, Master card, American Express through the below button. Thank very much for this gift today.

Surrounded by the peaceful waters of Lake Victoria, Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary is home to 49 orphaned chimpanzees rescued from across East Africa. Chimpanzee Sanctuary and Wildlife Conservation Trust (Chimpanzee Trust), an NGO, is responsible for all aspects of the sanctuary. Deeply committed to and involved in both field conservation and community education, we work closely with the Ugandan government and wildlife authorities. We offer both day Trips (Half and Full day) and overnight at Ngamba Ecolodge to the sanctuary which provides an exceptional opportunity to closely observe these fascinating great apes in our unique setting.
