Jim Cronin opened Monkey World in 1987 and built the foundations for it to become a monkey welfare and conservation site, that supports multiple countries all around the world; whether it be by rescuing those monkeys in need or by educating people on how to conserve their (the monkey's) habitats.

Unfortunately, Jim passed in 2007, but a Memorial Fund was established in his name to continue to help support Monkey World and the work he dedicated himself to.

As a HUGE monkey lover (you might be able to tell) I wanted to help fundraise for something that in my eyes, is a fantastic and worthy cause.
