Long-time friends of the sanctuary, Lisa and Richard Stuverud, are celebrating a special day today and graciously sponsored a day of sanctuary to include their friends!
“I can’t think of a better way to celebrate my husband’s 77th birthday than by inviting the chimps and bovine to engage in a species appropriate celebration in his honor!! I know we all share a debt of gratitude to him for his undying love and support…this man deserves a party.”
Thank you so much, Lisa, for including the chimpanzees and bovines as you honor Richard today! We are so grateful to you both for all you’ve helped make possible in their lives.
Richard, we hope you have the best of days! Happy Birthday from all of us here at the sanctuary!
