Organiser's Description
Save the Chimps is the largest privately funded chimpanzee sanctuary in the world whose mission is to provide refuge and exemplary care to chimpanzees in need. Save the Chimps offers life-long care for chimpanzees rescued from research laboratories, the pet trade, and entertainment industry.
Your support will help provide quality care to our beloved chimpanzee residents, including fresh and nutritious meals, exceptional veterinary care, innovative enrichment, and the social companionship necessary for the chimps to live happy and full lives.
100% of all funds raised from the Chimpathon will go directly towards caring for our residents.
About the Chimpathon 5K/10K
The Chimpathon will be taking place at the St. Lucie County Fairgrounds. Due to health concerns for our Chimpanzee residents we will not be running through the sanctuary this year. This year’s Chimpathon will feature a flat and fast route out and back along Peacock Rd.
Since we cannot run through the Sanctuary this year, we will bring the sanctuary to you! There will be a large movie screen at the race streaming recorded videos and live streams of the Chimps and the Sanctuary! The race area will also be complete with vendors, sponsors food, games & more!
Over 400 people joined us virtually for last year’s Chimpathon and now it is your turn to join us in-person!
