Help Raise Funds for Chimps! (age 18+) Referral
Be a part of helping IDA-Africa save great apes from extinction! Help prepare for a benefit to raise funds for the care and protection of the chimpanzees of the Sanaga-Yong Rescue Center in Cameroon Africa! The event will be an evening of education and entertainment, including a dinner, a presentation, and a silent and live auction.
In the country of Cameroon In Defense of Animals-Africa runs the Sanaga-Yong Chimpanzee Rescue Center, a forest sanctuary for orphaned chimpanzees taken captive as infants by hunters. In collaboration with the government of Cameroon, IDA-Africa wages a global public education and sensitization campaign to prevent extinction of chimpanzees and gorillas.
Volunteer tasks for the 12:30-4:30pm shift will include decorating, posting signage, setting up the dining area, setting-up the silent auction, unloading all vehicles, assisting the caterer and other projects as they arise.
There is no dress code--please dress in comfortable clothes and shoes. Volunteers must be able to carry items and be on their feet for long periods of time. IDA-Africa very much appreciates your help and will provide light snacks and non-alcoholic beverages throughout the day.
