great gorilla run · 13 September 2005

With just over 1000 mountain gorillas left in the world and 3 subspecies now critically endangered it is vital we do everything we can to save gorillas from extinction. We protect them from poachers, safeguard their forest home and improve livelihoods in local communities. Will you join us?

Story

Thank you for visiting James and Nic's fundraising page.

Along with hundreds of other would-be primates, we will be taking part in this year's 7km Great Gorilla Run. The City will be invaded by 700 gorilla-suited freaks on Sunday September 25 as we run, climb and bound along on all fours to raise money for the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund. Lock up your bananas.

If you would like to contribute to saving this magnificent species from extinction then please donate to our joint sponsorship appeal.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. However, if you would rather do it the old-fashioned way, we do have sponsorship forms and can accept cash! We and our fellow gorillas appreciate your support.
