Felicity’s Lucky Seven Day

by

In addition to being Halloween and Jamie’s birthday (party!!). Today is Felicity’s Lucky Seven Day. This is the seventh in a series of Sponsor-a-Days honoring Felicity Wood.

As you probably well know from the previous six Felicity Days, for her birthday this year, Felicity asked her loved ones to donate to the sanctuary. Her family and friends responded by honoring her throughout the year. Felicity was so successful in her fundraising that she raised the 2nd highest amount of anyone during our Anniversary Fundraising for the chimp-proof windows.

Today’s day is from Sam and Bailey, two of Felicity’s beloved canine family members (smart dogs!)

Here’s a close-up of one of my favorite photos of Jamie, taken by Sarah in 2009. You may have received a donation thank you card with this photo on the front:

Felicity Day 6

by

This month’s Felicity Day (the 6th in a series) is from Lue Clifford, Felicity grandmother.

As you know if you’ve been following the blog for a while, for her birthday this year, Felicity Wood asked her loved ones to donate to the sanctuary in honor of her birthday. And they did -we’ve been happily celebrating Felicity day’s since May and donations raised went to our Anniversary Fundraising. Thank you Lue and thank you Felicity for helping to support the care of the Cle Elum Seven!

Happy Felicity Day Six from Jamie, Negra, Jody, Missy, Annie, Foxie and Burrito.

Here’s handsome Burrito to say thanks:

Felicty Day Cinco

by

Today is the fifth in a series of Felicity Days.

For her birthday this year, Felicity Wood did a great job of convincing her loved ones to donate to the sanctuary instead (or perhaps in addition to?) giving her birthday gifts. So, we are celebrating Felicity several days throughout the year. Today’s day is from Jinny & Darby, Felicity’s two Old English Sheepdogs. We’re not sure how they expressed what day they wanted to honor Felicity, but we suspect they’ll get an extra long walk today as a thank you for their generosity.

Happy Felicity Day Cinco from Negra! (this is one of Felicity’s favorite photos):

Felicty Day x 4

This is getting fun! Today is the fourth in a series of Felicity Days.

For her birthday this year, Felicity Wood asked/persuaded/cajoled her friends and family into donating to the sanctuary in lieu of birthday gifts. As a result, we are celebrating Felicity for several days throughout the year. Today’s day is from Marl Kane. Thank you Marl and thank you, Felicity, for helping us all those months ago with our 2nd Anniversary Fundraising!

Felicity Day the Third

by

Today’s Felicity Day is from Deborah Kane-Wood. For Felicity’s birthday this year, she asked her friends and family to donate to the sanctuary in lieu of birthday gifts. The result was several Felicity Days throughout the year, so Felicity is being celebrated numerous times instead of just on her birthday. Not a bad deal! Plus, she knows the donations from her loved ones are going towards the care of her chimpanzee friends. This donation came during our 2nd Anniversary fundraising, so Felicity played a big part in helping us reach our goal!

Happy Felicity Day the Third from Jamie, Negra, Jody, Missy, Annie, Foxie and Burrito.

Felicity Day Part Deux

by

An anonymous donor chose this day, May 23rd, to honor Felicity Wood.

This year, Felicity Wood asked her friends and family to skip the birthday gifts and donate to the sanctuary instead. So, we have a lot of Felicity Days for 2010! Thanks so much, Felicity, for this act of giving, and for all of your friends and family for their generosity in helping to support your chimpanzee friends.
