People have expressed an interest in donating to CARE, which would help these baboons an enormous amount. The website and ways of donating are being updated, but for now, one way to donate to this cause is to go to the website www.primatecare.org and go to the donations page. They use Setcom which requires a few steps to go through in order to donate. There should be a little comments box where you can write my name and where the money should go to (i.e. tetanus) if you would like to. Plan B might be a little easier. Since many of you reading my blog are friends of Aristeia Needlepoint, an easy way to donate would be to write me a check, hand it to my mother, Wendy, or Virginia who have an envelope ready to receive donations. These will be deposited in my account and I will be able to pay CARE in cash. This way they get the money as soon as possible and I can tell them directly who gave the money and where it should go (i.e. tetanus for a baboon or troop, of to anything in general if you just want to donate anything). I will also be able to get specific baboon info for you. Don't worry, I won't spend the money myself, I promise it will go directly to the baboons. Feel free to contact me or Wendy (who is on vacation until the 22nd of May, but will then deposit all the donations and then I will take give it to CARE) if you have any questions or would like to donate!!
These little guys can't thank you enough for any help.
