Description

The Primate Rescue Center, Inc. (PRC) is hosting its Annual Member Event to raise funds to support the sanctuary. This event will be held on June 17, 2017 from 1:00pm to 4:30pm with more than 400 guests in attendance. The Annual Member Event is our only on-site fundraiser to support the 9 chimpanzees and 40+ monkeys who call the Primate Rescue Center home.

The Primate Rescue Center occupies over 30 acres in central Kentucky, with buildings, enclosures and grounds designed to afford the animals a quiet, sheltered place to spend their lives. The residents have found refuge from biomedical research, the entertainment industry, and the pet trade. The PRC has undertaken the lifetime care of these animals, some of which will likely live another 50 years. We strive to provide these deserving individuals with the highest quality of care in a supportive environment conducive to their rehabilitation and recovery from past traumas.

The Primate Rescue Center is a 501(c)3 organization (61-1325369), funded entirely by private donations and partnerships. Our mission is to alleviate the suffering of primates wherever it occurs. We are proud to be among the few national charities accredited by the Better Business Bureau and have earned the Best in America seal from the Independent Charities of America.

We hope you will support us in this worthy endeavor by contributing to our Annual Member Event to help us maximize our fundraising efforts. Most of the visitors to our event are local to Kentucky and the surrounding areas and represent the demographics of the region. Please review the enclosed flyers for our sponsorship and support options. We hope that businesses like yours will see the benefit in not only supporting our sanctuary, but also increasing your own exposure and good will with the many individuals who will be visiting our sanctuary that afternoon.
