Colobus Trust

PLEASE CAN YOU HELP US????? WE URGENTLY NEED FUNDS. 

The Colobus Trust has been on a plot of Diani Beach for 10 years that is 80% forest. This forest is a habitat for a troop of Colobus monkeys as well as many vervets, sykes, yellow baboons, bush babies, suni antelopes, and many other birds and mammals. It is also the home of our Colobus Trust Cottage which contains our visitors centre, housing for volunteers and an administrative office. The plot also has our rehabilitation cages, our quarantine cages, a veterinary clinic and a nature trail for eco-tours.

We have been renting the plot for the past 10 years, and now the owner has put it up for sale and development. There is currently a bid on the plot, however, if we can raise the money to match the price we could possibly purchase it ourselves.

If we don’t raise the money to purchase the plot ourselves, we will be forced to move, and all of our hard work we have put into developing the cottage, vet clinic, etc. will be lost! In addition, it will cost us a lot of money to move - money that should be spent on saving the Colobus Monkeys!

Please email Jophie at jophie@colobustrust.org if you are able to donate funds to help prevent this tragic crisis!
