ACTION FOR APES 2020 UPDATE:
We know each of our participating organizations are likely facing daily changes as we all work to keep our students, staff and ourselves healthy. In recognition of closures and cancellations, we feel it is appropriate to suspend the 2020 Action for Apes campaign until September of this year. We are not just committed to a healthy future for gorillas, but a healthy future for all of us; and, we recognize that there are many critical priorities for each of us and our community partners to address.
With that being said, we will leave it up to your organization to decide whether your participation will stop now (or by the end of this school year), or whether you’d like to continue collecting devices through September 2020. If you would like to stop collecting now, please contact conservation@houstonzoo.org. If we do not hear from you by Wednesday, April 1, we will include you in the campaign when it reopens in September.
