this is what it’s all about

May 21, 2016 by Diana

After a very successful gala and the outpouring of support for Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest’s plans to expand, plus the incredibly exciting and long-awaited public announcement about the new sanctuary in Georgia, Project Chimps, I had all sorts of profound and deeply-felt sentiments to share in this blog post.

But then, this morning, I filmed Foxie and Jamie playing. I laughed out loud watching them and decided that all I really needed to share today is this, because this is what it’s all about:

Happy Birthday, Bruce!

May 21, 2016 by Katelyn

Our second sponsor for this double day of sanctuary comes from the chimps’ long time friend, supporter and volunteer caregiver, Deb Wagman, in honor of her equally amazing husband, Bruce, for his birthday!

“Bruce is an animal lawyer; for him it is not a job but a calling. He works tirelessly protecting, saving, defending and making life better for almost every type of animal I can think of. Not only was he instrumental in starting CSNW, but continues to work for the seven as a board member and legal advisor.  For the last 2 years he has been negotiating getting hundreds of chimpanzees out of private labs and into a new sanctuary in Georgia. There is nothing more special I can give him for his birthday than a day of sanctuary for his 7 favorite chimps. Happy Birthday, my love!”

Bruce, thank you so much for all that you have done for this sanctuary, as well as the work you are doing for chimpanzees across the country! We hope you have the happiest of birthdays!

Happy Birthday, LauRenn!

May 21, 2016 by Katelyn

Today we are so fortunate to have two sponsors gifting the chimpanzees with a day of sanctuary! To start the day off, Joe Lilly sponsored today in celebration of his niece, LauRenn Reed, on her birthday!

Joe shared this message about today: “LauRenn is a devoted admirer of the sanctuary. She has a big heart full of love for animals and I know that she gets a lot of joy from learning about your chimps.”

 

Happy birthday LauRenn and thanks so much for all your love and support of the Cle Elum 7!
