Don’t Miss This Chance To Save Them Now.]( [Match My Gift]( Friend, Time is running out to make a life-changing difference for 26 chimpanzees warehoused and languishing in a government research laboratory. The Humane Society Legislative Fund has been fighting to make the National Institutes of Health finally release these chimps to Chimp Haven sanctuary as required by federal law. And we don’t have a moment to lose. After years of delay, 18 chimps have died waiting for their chance to leave the New Mexico laboratory and finally enjoy sanctuary life. We can’t let up our fight to save the remaining 26 chimps and give them the life they deserve. Our pressure is working, but we can’t afford to let up now! That’s why we’re counting on your help to make the most of our limited match before it expires at our end of fiscal year deadline in a matter of days. [Will you make a matched gift of $20 or more to the Humane Society Legislative Fund now and have it DOUBLED, up to $12,500, to make a life-changing impact for chimps and other vulnerable animals?]( And don’t worry, even though donations that surpass $12,500 will not be matched, they’ll still go toward our work to protect all animals from harm. [Match My Gift]( NIH claims these 26 chimpanzees are too fragile to move. But the fact is they could live for another decade or more, confined to the sterile laboratory and barren enclosures where they endured the worst trauma of their lives. We refuse to let this tragedy continue or abandon these chimps to die when they could live out the rest of their lives in a sanctuary designed for their needs. They could live out their remaining years like Hope, who was rescued in 2018. Hope is a survivor-turned-superstar who befriends new chimps, calming their nervousness when they arrive at the sanctuary for the first time. Her recovery from the trauma of biomedical research has been so successful that she’s now part of the welcoming crew. When she’s not “on duty,” she enjoys “spa treatments” for her alopecia and plenty of leisure time outdoors. Chimps like Hope deserve better than being forced to live out the rest of their lives in barren government research facilities. We need your help to ensure the remaining 26 chimps at the NIH facility have the chance to live a life like Hope. After all they have suffered at the hands of humans, we owe them that much. [Please, make your donation to HSLF now and have it matched—dollar for dollar—before this opportunity expires on September 30. Your contribution helps our team keep fighting to protect chimps and other vulnerable animals from harm.]( Thank you for your support today, [Sara Amundson Signature] Sara Amundson President Humane Society Legislative Fund P.S.
