On Pongo Island, chimpanzees were all rescued after the death of their mothers which were killed and sold on bushmeat markets. Some of the young chimps spent several years in captivity and they were in very bad health. They still need great care. In Pongo, there is no vet and that is why the doctor is the one who treats the chimps. The association needs you because medical care and medicines are costly.

Like too many chimpanzee infants, Boby lived lonely in tiny cages before being rescued by Patricia Leschaeve. Papaye-France is aware that other young chimps are imprisoned or in danger but the association has enough funds to rescue them. You can rescue a young chimp from ill-treatment by sponsoring it. The association will take care of it in order to re-introduce it into the wild. With 50 euros per year commitment, you will ensure the survival of a young chimp and you will regularly receive news of the chimpanzee group.

The chimps of the Papaye-France association make now the most of the life in a safe place. Thanks to a few benefactors, the apes are healthy. But other chimps are still waiting for help. Papaye-France is developing.

You can send a donation or sponsor a young chimp this very day. It will be enough if you print the membership form and you send it back with your payment. We will regularly send you news of the chimps.
