Help protect gorillas from deadly Ebola

Ebola is threatening critically endangered gorillas in eastern DRC. Help provide Ebola Crisis Gorilla Boxes, equipping frontline rangers with essential patrol kit and protective supplies to keep themselves – and gorillas – safe.

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

Help equip 10 rangers this World Gorilla Day

This World Gorilla Day, for one day only, we want to raise £3,210 – enough to equip 10 frontline rangers with 10 Ebola Crisis Gorilla Boxes.

It is a chance to celebrate these extraordinary animals by providing lifesaving equipment for the people protecting them – and helping safeguard gorillas from a deadly new threat.

Ebola is spreading through the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The consequences for gorillas could be devastating. During previous outbreaks, approximately 5,000 western lowland gorillas were lost, with scientists estimating that around 95% of infected gorillas died.

We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

So today, on World Gorilla Day, we are setting ourselves a very special challenge.

For this one day only, we want to raise £3,210 – enough to equip 10 frontline rangers with 10 Ebola Crisis Gorilla Boxes.

What better way to celebrate these extraordinary animals than by providing lifesaving equipment for the people who protect them – and helping safeguard gorillas from this deadly threat?

This one-day target forms part of our much wider Ebola Crisis Gorilla Box Appeal, through which we are raising funds to equip all our frontline rangers.

Every donation made today will count towards our World Gorilla Day goal and be added to the wider appeal total – helping us provide even more rangers with the equipment and protective supplies they urgently need.

Will you help us provide 10 Ebola Crisis Gorilla Boxes and protect gorillas from this deadly disease?

You don’t need to fund an entire box to make a difference. Whatever you can give will help provide protective supplies, equip screening stations and ensure dedicated rangers can continue their lifesaving work during this incredibly dangerous time.

Gorilla conservation has achieved so much. With your support, we can defend that progress and help ensure these remarkable animals have a future.

Please donate today.
