Colleen Walford graciously sponsored a day of sanctuary in honor of “Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest for doing such a wonderful job!”
Thank you so much for your kindness, Colleen! Certainly none of what Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest does would be possible without our amazing supporters or the amazing chimpanzees and bovines who call the sanctuary their home.
When thinking of “doing such a wonderful job”, our hearts can’t help but sing at the courage and growth of all the chimpanzees and bovines, but even more so at this time, over nine chimpanzees who have been asked so much of these past many weeks and months; a change of homes, friends and family, and all they knew, and how each one is doing their very best, courageously stepping outside comfort zones and into a new home for some, and both new and renewed relationships and experiences for all.
We so appreciate you, Colleen, and every one of you, who help keep the chimpanzees’ lives and home brimming with new choices, possibilities, hope, and family.

Katelyn, you made my day with the beautiful pictures of our beloved chimps. Thank you Colleen for honoring the Sanctuary and everyone connected with it.
Kim Harris says
Colleen, I wholeheartedly agree with you; each and every person at CSNW is truly special. They have created a phenomenal home for our chimps and bovines. And Katelyn, these pictures are fantastic. I saw the first one of Honey B and thought, awesome pic! Then the next one and next one… they all capture that special something about each of them. Just a bonus to my day!

That HUG between Dora and Rayne ~ goes right to the heart. The sweetest and “realest” portrayal of feeling.
LOVE IT!

These photographs are Artworks! From the picture of Mave, Willy and Honey B gazing with curiosity at their new neighbors to Dora and Rayne embracing to the freckled countenance of Terry’s upward gaze to Gordito in all of his gray-bearded glory…
