Chimp Haven, Inc.
Keithville, LA 71047
Tax ID: 74-2766663
Chimpanzees are highly intelligent and form life-long family bonds. They are genetically similar to humans and have served as research models for the biomedical research industry. As a result, humans have received the benefits of lifesaving vaccines and medical therapies. With new technologies and changing goals, many of these chimpanzees are no longer needed for research. Because they are long lived (up to 60 yrs. age), the challenge has been where to place them for long-term, cost-effective care?especially those that have been used in infectious disease studies. Founded eleven years ago to address this critical need, Chimp Haven is built on the expertise of concerned professionals and their desire to create a model for the lifetime care of these remarkable beings. Focusing solely on the welfare of the chimpanzees, Chimp Haven provides for the retirement of these deserving individuals and assures that their social and long-term care and health needs are met.

Fund For Animals, Inc.
New York, NY 10019
Tax ID: 13-6218740
The Fund for Animals was founded in 1967 by renowned author and humanitarian Cleveland Amory. The organization's motto, "We speak for those who can't," illustrates a mission of speaking out against egregious forms of animal cruelty. With the 1974 publication of Cleveland Amory's bestselling book, Man Kind? Our Incredible War on Wildlife, The Fund for Animals became known nationwide as a leading opponent of sport hunting, commercial trapping, and other egregious acts of cruelty to wild animals. Two and a half decades later, The Fund for Animals remains a nationwide force for the protection of both wildlife and domestic animals. While many wildlife advocacy organizations are primarily concerned with endangered species, The Fund for Animals believes that every individual wild animal deserves protection from pain, suffering, and death-whether that animal's species is endangered or thriving. The Fund for Animals' hallmark has been its work to protect all animals, including those who are unpopular and uncharismatic-the underdogs. Whether they are called "pests," "varmints," "nuisances," "non-native," or simply "strays," The Fund for Animals maintains that there are humane ways to deal with human/animal conflicts, and that there is no rationalization for cruelty. The Fund sees itself as a freeform and flexible organization that is opportunistic in meeting different challenges. The Fund for Animals is the only national animal protection organization that works on both advocacy and animal care. With regional offices and qualified and dedicated personnel working on education, legislation, litigation, and hands-on care, The Fund for Animals achieves effective results on a lean budget.

Tax ID: 77-0467495
Founded in 1990 by 16-year-old Ocean Robbins and 19-year-old Ryan Eliason, at a time when Nancy Reagan was telling young people to "just say no," we help youth say "yes" to living with meaning, purpose, integrity and commitment.
Youth stand at a threshold point in life, as they make choices that will send out vast ripples. Some young people believe growing up means abandoning their ideals. To us, it means learning how to live our ideals, every day, on the Earth. We believe that if the passion, creativity and commitment of youth can be liberated for the common good, we can transform our world.
YES! has inspired the formation of more than 400 non-profit clubs and organizations working for positive change, and brought greatly increased membership to hundreds more. YES! alumni have organized gang truces, started recycling programs, broken through stereotypes and prejudice barriers in schools, initiated community gardens and park clean-ups, set up marches and rallies to speak out on issues like environmental justice and the prison industry, and started socially responsible businesses. They have persuaded schools and businesses to purchase recycled products, offer organic and vegetarian options in cafeterias, retrofit their lighting, and offer anti-prejudice trainings.
Through public speaking, event facilitation, YES! Jams, organizing manuals, yesworld.org, and a support network for young activists, YES! is helping a generation to claim its voice and build a world we can be proud to pass on to our grandkids.
