Below are just a few of the amazing items in the online auction

Private island getaway to Parrot Cay in Turks and Caicos!

Professional recording (audio or video) studio opportunity and bed and breakfast package for three nights

Visit to Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest and a dinner prepared by staff

Note: the photo above of Annie eating Brussels sprouts is not a reflection of the dinner that the staff will prepare for the humans – we promise that the dinner will be good and won’t be raw Brussels. We won’t even make you forage for your dinner – it will be served on plates.

Blooming Trolls:

A one-of-a-kind mixed media piece celebrating Foxie’s love of troll dolls, made with actual troll parts after they were well-loved by the chimpanzees. By volunteer caregiver Seana Blake

And much, much more!

You can also donate online towards our Veterinary Fund. With your help, the new mobile clinic will be up and running by this fall. The more funds received, the more equipment and needed supplies we can have available for medical procedures.

Big thanks to Karen and Don Young for generous initial investments to the clinic, to everyone who gave at the 2011 auciton, and to all of the amazing 2013 donors  – notably Marsha Perelman for her $10,000 donation that was matched at the event on Saturday, and to Kathy Cochran and Wynn Kerr who raised their paddles for $5,000 a piece!
