Today was sponsored by Pam Powers who shared this lovely message about her kind gift:
“Celebrating my birthday, can’t think of a better way to celebrate the staff and chimps at the sanctuary than by sponsoring a day on my special day.”
Pam, thank you so much for choosing such an inspiring and compassionate gift for yourself and the chimpanzees! We so appreciate your generous heart! Happiest of birthdays from all of us at the sanctuary and we hope you have a beautiful day!
Honey B and Mave:

Annie and Missy:
I love all the chimp people at the sanctuary but I just love Mave’s face.
Hi Pam…I’m sending you BIG Happy Birthday wishes from the midwest…
What a very sweet way to brighten your birthday by including the ten chimps in celebration them as well…
All I have to do is look at an image or a video about them, & my heart begins to thump…I imagine yours does too…My special loving interest in chimps (really all Great Apes) goes back to about fifty years ago…
Bless you…
That is a cute picture of Honey B and Mave grooming. Last summer when I sponsored a day for a friend (she has since gone completely bananas over Mave) and her sister, she really enjoyed the pictures of Annie and Missy, one of which is the two of them above, sitting on a platform between games of “Got your toes!”
Hope it was a happy birthday, Pam!
I’m with Tobin…that’s my 2nd favorite Annie-Missy photo. (First being their silhouettes at the top of a structure, in the shade, with bars of sunlight across their bodies, Missy looking into the distance and Annie’s long fingers reaching out to touch Missy’s shoulder).
Happiest of birthdays Pam and many many more…. <3
