How to Help

Donations

Please send your tax-deductible donation to Pacific Primate Sanctuary (IRS ID #99-0285731). Pacific Primate Sanctuary is in immediate and on-going need of funds to provide for the daily nutritional, medical, and social requirements of the primates at our facility.  Every contribution is a commitment to their survival and to the collective force of conservation, protecting species on the very edge of extinction.

Government agencies do not fund this work. We rely entirely on donations from YOU to provide food, medicine, and shelter for the animals in our care.  Please tell your friends and family how they can help the monkeys at Pacific Primate Sanctuary and join us in saving the beings with whom we share the Earth.

Where your money goes:

Regular ongoing donations of any amount will help provide the basic necessities for the primates in our care. Please give what you can.

Gift Contributions

Make a donation of $20 or more in honor of a friend or family member and we will send a beautiful Contribution Certificate to commemorate your gift.  The certificate can be printed with or without the amount of your donation. 

Please make a donation through PayPal using the link above. Then download and complete the Gift Contribution Form to the right, and e-mail it to pps@pacificprimate.org

"When you have such a program as your Sanctuary-you have no idea how far the ripples move the waters of peace-you do feel it by all the energy that these ripples bring back to you."

Following are a few of the 5-star reviews we have received:

 “I continue to be astonished that this organization can operate purely out of love and compassion for our fellow beings and without a single member taking a salary. It is something that this world needs more of and Pacific Primate Sanctuary more than deserves a five star review and support from the public.”

“I've been following the work of PPS since its inception. It is a superb organization with a profoundly meaningful mission. Unqualified recommendation.”

“Just thinking about the monkeys living out their natural lives together in such a loving place brings me a special kind of peace. I can sit quietly in my chair here and, soon enough, I hear the monkeys "singing" in their beautiful safe haven provided by Lucy, her staff, and all the dedicated volunteers.”

“I have been a consulting veterinarian for Pacific Primate Sanctuary since the late 1990's. I have seen their dedication to building and maintaining a state-of-the-art facility to care for these threatened and endangered species of New World non-human primates….Their medical care is top-notch for the animals. They keep extremely detained observations and records on the animals, and the overall facility goes far beyond what the regulations require. They are a model animal sanctuary in all aspects.”
