WE DID IT!!! Orphan monkeys keep their home!

Category: Uncategorized | Date: Aug 28 2009 | By: cercopan

After almost a month of worry and sleepless nights, we finally raised the $3333 needed to pay our rent on 1st September!!!! Thanks to Wildlife Direct readers, our monkeys have a safe and secure home for another year. 

A huge thank you to all  Wildlife Direct readers who have given their support either via donations or the wonderfully uplifting posts we have received. Special thanks to Paula and the Willdlife Direct team who have been absolutely amazing and also to the anonymous donors on the website. I speak for everyone here when I say that knowing you were all with us every step of the way during this difficult month has made such a difference to us.

We could not have done this without you! I am sure that tonight for the first time in a long while I will sleep easy. I will also be sure to lift my glass to all of you when I celebrate this evening :)

As founder and former director of cercopan, I just wanted to say a personal thank you to all wildlife direct supporters - so many of you following our plight and helping us out it is humbling…. the response and support was indeed, as claire has said, a real boost - we did have two generous anonymous donations through our website in the last few days which pushed us that last stretch over the goal - the extra will go to purchasing milk and fruit for the monkeys, always hard to fund…thanks again.
