Why wait? Help chimpanzee victims of research
Dear Friend,
Today is Giving Tuesday, the most important day of the year for compassionate people like you to make a transformative difference for causes that are important to you.
Chimpanzees are often forgotten victims of medical research. After being infected with viruses, injected with experimental drugs, and undergoing countless surgeries, hundreds of chimps were left to languish by the biomedical research industry.
AAVS provides support to sanctuaries across the U.S. that rescue these chimps and give them lifelong care.
You can do something amazing today – you can help these survivors. Thanks to generous AAVS supporters, your contribution will be matched dollar for dollar—starting today!
Right now, sanctuaries are sending us requests for funding, and the needs are overwhelming.
With your Giving Tuesday gift, you will help provide the best possible care for animals released from labs. The sanctuaries can’t do it without people like you.
Sincerely,
Luke Klein
President
