We love volunteers

Today we had a volunteer work party. About 15 people showed up, despite pretty dismal weather, to plant bamboo, pick pears, help clean up the property, and clean the greenhouse panels. Glamorous stuff! It takes a ton of work to keep things moving around here and we are SO incredibly grateful for all the support we get, from physical labor to financial donations to troll doll packages. So thanks, y’all! We couldn’t do it without you!

    Thank YOU and the other volunteers for what they do!! Coming from someone who lives out of state, I can tell you speaking for myself, I would soooooo be right there with you all washing, preparing, planting, hanging crepe paper, hiding treats, the list goes on forever………………………..if I could be there.

    CSNW volunteers are a special group of people indeed!!!! Chimp pant-hoots and hugs to all!!

    I feel it is an honor and a privilege to be able to give to the chimps what they deserve and have deserved for so long. I do think of those of you who can’t be there and keep you in my heart while I am there.

    We all have something we can give to the sanctuary. Time, Money, In Kind donations, moral support, ideas, leads to others, labor. My point is, it takes all of us together to get it done. Thank you for all you do for the CE7, no matter where you are or what you do. Keep spreading the word.
