Chimpanzee Trust is participating in the Global Giving Fundraiser which starts on 8th -26th June 2020. We call upon our champions to support chimpanzees through the Global Giving Fundraiser by clicking Donate

The current travel restrictions, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, have affected the tourism industry that contributes 50% of the cost of operations for the care and welfare of 50 orphaned chimpanzees as well as sponsoring wild chimpanzee monitoring and habitat restoration programs.

Donations and support from a struggling economy in Uganda have dried up, risking the lives and welfare of the animals at the sanctuary and hampering protection of the wild chimpanzees.

The sanctuary also supports communities living next to wild chimpanzee habitat to promote habitat conservation and improve their livelihoods. the chimpanzee is an endangered species and our work ensures its survival in the wild and protected areas, critical to the survival of the species.
