Member of Kids Save Apes raises $4K for Great Apes!


After meeting Jane Goodall earlier this year, James, a member of the Roots & Shoots group "Kids Save Apes", has been hard at work saving primates.

Referred to as the "#1 Bonobo fan", James has visited his favorite primate in California, Ohio and Iowa and he recently raised over $4,000 for the Great Ape Trust of Iowa's Bowling for Apes fundraiser! He was interviewed by the site www.bonobokids.com about his passion for saving bonobos, and how he raised $4K to benefit them!

Here is the blog story:
