Now in its 11th year, the live Giving Day for Apes event will take place on Tuesday, October 8, as thousands of donors from around the world come together in a show of support for qualified animal sanctuaries and rescue centers in Africa, Asia and North America.

With Early Giving open, all gifts made from now through October 8 will count as part of the Giving Day for Apes final total. All gifts will also count toward this year’s $57,000 prize pool, and each gift will help participating sanctuaries have a better chance of winning prizes tied to random chance drawings and other competitions.

Use this site to search for your favorite sanctuaries and rescue centers and support them with a donation. And if you’re feeling extra generous, search through our list of participants to learn more—and make a gift to a new sanctuary or rescue center for the first time.

About the Presenting Sponsor

The Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries (GFAS), founded in 2007, is a nonprofit organization with a mission to accredit and recognize sanctuaries and rescue centers, support them to achieve the highest standards of excellence, promote collaboration, and raise awareness of their work.

Giving Day for Apes is just one of the ways we recognize and support animal sanctuaries and rescue centers around the world. We envision a world where there are true sanctuaries for all animals who need them - and we work to educate and partner with sanctuaries and rescues around the world to help them achieve and maintain standards of excellence to make that vision a reality, day-by-day. We’re building a growing network of sanctuary staff and volunteers around the world who have the support and resources they need to provide that true sanctuary for their animals.
