About this sanctuary
Verified profile information attributed to the linked sources.
Chimp Haven’s mission is to provide and promote the best care of sanctuary chimpanzees and inspire action for the species worldwide. Our vision is a world where all chimpanzees thrive. As The National Chimpanzee Sanctuary, we are the only sanctuary designated to take in more than 300 federally-owned chimps from three U.S. labs. Currently, we have more than 200 chimpanzees living here with more than 35 coming before the end of 2017. We are in the quiet phase of a $20 million capital campaign to build additional space for those chimpanzees waiting.
