Sept. 30 Deadline: DOUBLE Your Gift Today to Help Protect Chimpanzees ([link removed])
[link removed]

Friend,

We have an urgent update on our work to protect chimpanzees: As you read this, 26 chimpanzees are being warehoused and languishing in the Alamogordo Primate Facility, a government laboratory in New Mexico. Despite being required to by law, the National Institutes of Health is still refusing to release them to Chimp Haven, a sanctuary for chimpanzees who have been retired from laboratory research.

We sued on behalf of these chimps, who have endured years of suffering, in an effort to ensure they live the rest of their lives in peace at Chimp Haven. Despite the court concluding that the NIH violated federal law by keeping the chimps, they still refuse to move them to sanctuary. We need to apply urgent pressure NOW to push them to do the right thing and move these chimps before it’s too late. We’re counting on support from compassionate advocates like you to help us ramp up our efforts, friend—so from now until September 30, your gift can go twice as far to protect chimps and all animals from harm.

Will you donate $20 or more to HSLF today and have every dollar DOUBLED with our 2X MATCH, up to $12,500, to help us fight for these 26 chimpanzees and protect all animals from harm? And don’t worry, even though donations that surpass $12,500 will not be matched, they’ll still go toward our work to protect all animals from harm. ([link removed])

We’ve seen what’s possible when chimps heal. TJ is a 35-year-old chimpanzee who was rescued from the Alamogordo Primate Facility. At Chimp Haven, he’s learned to trust his caregivers and show them his playful, curious personality. TJ, and his buddy Nicole, often snoop on—or supervise—the sanctuary’s daily activities and give good-natured trouble to the on-site team. It’s incredible to see TJ replace fear and hesitation around humans with enthusiasm and affection.

We think all chimpanzees deserve a chance to recover like TJ and Nicole, and we hope you agree, friend. That’s why we can’t waste this chance to demand NIH reverse its harmful decision and release the chimps before it’s too late. We need your support at this crucial moment, so please: Make a donation to HSLF today, before our match expires on September 30, and have it go twice as far to help us continue fighting for chimpanzees and all animals who need us.

Thank you,
