Join us in celebrating Jason Merritt today! Jason is connected to the sanctuary in many ways. His wife Krissy and he live locally and they have been supporters of the sanctuary for years. Krissy is also an extremely dedicated volunteer, currently transitioning to paid staff (more on that in a later post).
Jason is an all-around handy guy. He’s done some work at the sanctuary, and offers his talents and assistance to other locals. Recently, in lieu of being paid for work for another sanctuary supporter, Jason offered that they instead make a donation to their mutual chimpanzee friends, so this sponsor-a-day is in honor of his generosity.
Thank you so much, Jason!
Linda C says
How generous of you, Jason, to give your pay, your time, and your expertise! But we’ve seen that’s how Krissy and her people roll
Hope you have a fabulous day!
Lori says
Many thanks to Jason and Krissy for all they do for the chimpanzees and the sanctuary! It is so fun to see the chimpanzees enjoying all that love.

Hi Paulette! I believe that’s our gal Missy in the photo. Since Missy is often seen visiting Jody’s place on Young’s Hill, perhaps Missy has been channeling Jody’s foraging skills !

Since Paulette said it twice above, I’ll say what she said. Thanks Jason and the person honoring you and your work.

It brightens my perspective of humanity knowing that kindhearted people like Jason spread their generosity to help others…..especially those who reside at my favorite sanctuary.
Can’t wait to hear about soon-to-be new staff member Krissy! Looks like chimps are very fortunate to have them both as friends.
Don says
