Protecting the Mountain Gorillas of Virunga
Become a Gorilla Godparent TODAY for 2010 for only $25
Would you like to become a Gorilla Godparent to Ndeze or Ndakasi - the ONLY 2 baby orphan mountain gorillas in the world?
If you do you will receive a UNIQUE PERSONALIZED certificate for 2010.
Check out the below. Designed for us by Philippa. Very cool - and a lovely Holiday gift too.
This one is for Ndakasi - orphaned in June 2007 when her mother was shot and killed in Virunga National Park.
And this is for Ndeze - she was orphaned in July 2007 when her father Senkwekwe and 4 other members of her family were massacred.
Their new home will be the Senkwekwe Centre - and all funds raised will go to this cause.
HOW DO YOU DO THIS?
Simple enter 1 in the box next to the donation item: Foster Ndeze or Foster Ndakasi and then hit DONATE. This will direct you to Paypal.
The certificates will be sent in the name of the person who made the donation, and to the email address provided, unless otherwise indicated. Please allow a few hours - as we need to have some time to personalize them and email them back to you.
If you would like the certificate sent to someone else please email me at: gorillagodparent at gorilla.cd
THANK YOU!
And finally - for those of you who have SO GENEROUSLY donated since the campaign launched last Monday - if you would like a certificate please email the above address too (stating the name you would like put on).
Thanks… We have almost $9,000 right now to put toward the new home for Ndeze & Ndakasi.
REMEMBER THAT FOR EACH DOLLAR YOU DONATE, THE UN FOUNDATION DONATES A DOLLAR - SO WE CAN DOUBLE YOUR MONEY FOR THE GORILLA ORPHANS!

Ok no problem
Great idea! Nice design too.
I want to give the fostering of Ndeze and Ndakazi as a christmas present. Each one for a different friend. I want them sent to my email so I can frame them and put under the xmas tree. Is it possible? If yes, how do I proceed?
Hi Ana.. this is absolutely possible. All you have to do is make the donation under the items Foster Ndeze and/or Foster Ndakasi and send me an email to gorillagodparent@gorilla.cd with the names of the people you would like on the certificate(s). Very straight forward! Thanks!!
Hi Samantha!
I just made the donation for fostering Ndeze and Ndakazi
Name of my friends:
-Otavio Augusto
-Luiz Otavio
Thank you,
Ana Leuzinger
What a great idea! I made donations for both babies in my mother in laws name, she will love this! Thank you!
Thanks Ana! And thank you also Sonia!
[...] is your last chance to become a Gorilla Godparent to Ndeze and/or Ndakasi for 2010 and ensure that the Gorilla Orphans will be happy, healthy and [...]
Is there possible to make the donation for fostering Ndeze and Ndakazi yet? If yes, how do I proceed? Thank you!
Hi Leon. In actual fact we have ended the Gorilla Godparent scheme for now - but I can make an exception. If you make an open donation of $25 per gorilla godparent and then email me to samantha at gorilla dot cd to let me know which one(s) you would like to foster I will make sure you get the certificate. Thank you!
Hi! My daughter’s preschool class in Charlotte, NC, USA is studying the rainforest, and she has selected endangered animals as her focus. I would love for her to be a “godparent”, but don’t know if its still possible. We’ll select another donation option if its too much trouble.
Thanks!
Hi Meredith - Unfortunately the Gorilla Godparent scheme is closed for 2010 but we will be doing it again later on in the year for 2011. In the meantime we would appreciate any donation - however big or small - that is made. Thanks ever so much and good luck with your daughter’s project!
