Mission
To provide exemplary care to chimpanzees in need while educating and inspiring humanity.
About
Project Chimps (PC) has an agreement with a large, private, biomedical research laboratory to retire more than 200 former research chimpanzees to the sanctuary, where they will receive exemplary care for the remainder of their lives. PC permanently retired 28 chimpanzees in 2018, increasing the total chimp population from 31 to 59. In 2018, PC completed the rehabilitation of a forested, 6-acre, outdoor habitat, where the chimpanzees now run freely, forage and climb trees with no caging overhead. PC initiated construction of a large-group residence for up to 40 additional chimpanzees. The project was 85% complete by year end with completion anticipated in spring 2019. PC expanded its volunteer corps from 20 to 174 to support PC operations and chimpanzee care. Volunteers and staff prepared more than 50,000 meals for the chimpanzees and developed enrichment activities including new swings, climbing structures and challenging puzzles.
