I work with a great bunch of people. From preparing meals to planning fundraising events, the CSNW team, volunteers, board members, and supporters spend countless hours helping the Cle Elum Seven. I am deeply humbled to see how many and how much people care. In particular, I am honored to work with Diana, J.B, Debbie, Elizabeth, Katelyn and Lisa. These dedicated and compassionate individuals sacrifice their holidays and weekends to care for the chimps (the chimps still need to be cared for when the rest of the world takes a break). They call in on their days off to check on the chimps. They drive out of their way to pick up donated items and juggle the responsibilities of several staff members when someone is out of the office. The work is demanding, but very rewarding and they all do it with a smile on their faces. I am truly thankful to be working with such an amazing team.

Thank you caregivers for all your love, hard work, and tireless devotion to the chimps and each other. I’ve never seen any of you with nothing less than a smile on your face or one close by. You guys are truly remarkable and the chimps show the love they have for you in their actions and eyes. Thank you isn’t enough but it’s a start.
Well said Jean!
I thank you all for being committed to the seven outstanding personalities!
THANK ALL OF YOU for what you do for the chimps! You guys are always there for them!
