Hi everyone!
Well I have finally achieved my dream of working for Ape Action Africa! I will be heading out on 17th November and returning just in time for New Years Eve!
Previously known as the Cameroon Wildlife Aid Fund, Ape Action Africa is protecting Cameroon’s great apes through direct action. Their front line conservation work includes rescuing gorillas, chimpanzees and monkeys orphaned or injured as a result of the bush meat trade, providing them with individual care, and giving them a safe forest sanctuary home where they can live with their own kind.
This will be the toughest challenge I have ever faced as I will be working in the hot and humid Cameroon jungle alongside some of the worlds most fascinating and endangered primates, living and breathing everything that is this cause for 9 hours per day, 7 days per week, for just under 6 weeks! Conditions will be basic; I will be washing my clothes in rain water and I will be drinking water from a well!
So please please donate anything you can for little old me who will be battling insects, spiders, rats and other beasties 24 hours a day for this incredible organisation!
Thank you!! :)
(I am financing this opportunity myself so any money donated goes straight to Ape Action Africa)
