Fauna Annual Report, 2014

2014 Annual Report
2
Hello,
I am so delighted to be sharing our first annual report with you. As some of you may know, there
have been a few administrative changes here at Fauna and hopefully you will now be hearing from us
more often.
I am happy to say that Fauna is forever evolving and growing. Although we are often afraid of change,
it really is good for all of us, but most of all, change is great for the chimps. I know many of you reading
this report have been with us from the very beginning of this amazing journey. You have witnessed a lot
of change over the years here at Fauna, so many good things–I hope you can see how much you have
helped us make a better life and home for our beloved residents.
I also hope that our new friends will understand that we consistently try to improve living conditions for
the chimps. They need far more than we can ever give them but even the smallest changes enrich their
lives and give them new opportunities and provide them with more options.
I adore all of you for the support you show and have shown over the years, how you never ask questions
about why another skywalk? Or why new windows? You listen to the needs of the chimps and you help
make those dreams come true. You trust we will make the right decisions and you support us along the
way, helping us grow and become the kind of place that really can provide a better life for the chimps.
You are the ones who inspire and encourage us every day with your lovely cards, letters and emails. Your
words of encouragement and expressing your concern for the wellbeing of chimpanzees make us want to
do more; to be better. There is not a note that comes my way that I do not read over and over. I want to
know how you feel and I need to take the light and energy you send me to the chimps. Knowing you care
and that you are always there for us is more than heartwarming: it is a comfort and a necessity.
Without you we could never have done all that we have, from the gifts you send to the love and support,
you keep us going. You have become my friends along this journey. You are there when we have problems and you are there to share joyous moments…there is nothing more I could ever have wanted from
you. I am deeply moved by the love and friendship you have shared with the chimps and that you have
shown me.
I am hoping this report will show you what we have been up to. We flash back to the past and bring you
up-to-date. We also talk a little about the future. You will read the names of the hundreds and hundreds
of people who have helped make all this possible and we have shown you where the funds go, how we
use our money and how we plan on preparing for the future.
Last, but certainly not least, you will learn about the wonderful volunteers who help us day in and day out
in so many different ways, from bake sales across the country to hands-on work right here at Fauna. Oh–
and let’s not forget for one second the incredible Fauna staff! From the wonderful team of people who
take care of our beloved residents every single day; to those who tend to the land and the wildlife that
shares our property; to the office staff who care for you, our supporters. It takes a great team to do all the
work and it takes a team of loving, committed people to care for a sanctuary. That includes you!
Panhoots and joy to you in the new year,

Estate Planning—A meaningful way of giving
A number of our supporters have enquired about putting Fauna in their estate plan. This form of giving is very important as your will is a statement of your values and reflects those things that are significant in your life. In addition to family and friends many people wish to remember
those organizations whose work most closely reflects their values. A charitable bequest simply is a clause in your will directing your executor to
pay a portion of your assets to a named charity. Below is a sample of how you can include Fauna in bequeathing funds:
“I bequeath to the Fauna Foundation of Carignan, Quebec _____% of the residue of my Estate to be applicable to the general purposes of the
Foundation.”
Please call our office at 450-658-1844 for more details. We are thankful for your meaningful gifts.

VOLUNTEERS
On the horizon…
Internship Program
In the summer of 2015, we will be starting an internship
program at Fauna. Students interested in a potential
career in primate care will be able to participate in an
8-week program that will cover the many aspects of the
job. From enrichment to preparing meals to chimp behaviors, our interns will gain valuable experience for their
future careers.
Re-vamped Volunteer Program
In the winter of 2015, we will be re-vamping our Volunteer program. Volunteers help us with many tasks around
Fauna and this new program will include more ways than
ever to help at Fauna.
Extending Skywalks
We make a living by what we get, but we make a
life by what we give. —Winston Churchill
Since our inception in 1997, many volunteers have given their time and energy
to Fauna. Whether it is volunteer days on the weekends, helping out on a weekly
basis in the gardens, or preparing enrichment, each volunteer’s contribution is
greatly appreciated by all of us here at Fauna.
Here is a list of our volunteers from 2014. Thank you to all!

Corporate Events
Our chimps love to spend their days outside in the
skywalks. We are currently working on extending our
skywalks another 150 feet, from Island 1 to Annie’s Island.
We already have 500+ feet of skywalk in place.
Greenhouses
The chimps love to be outside, but during the winter, the
cold prevents them from spending too much time outdoors. We plan on extending certain areas of the chimp
house with overhanging greenhouses, that will have full
360 degree views of the outdoors and will be heated
year round.
Binky’s Man Cave
There’s an area in the chimphouse known as “Back 2”.
There is an abundance of open space there that we will
be converting into a man cave for Binky. Complete with a
punching bag, ball pit, and other chimp toys, this will be
the perfect place for Binky to let loose.

Chimp House Changes
Pop down tunnels will connect upstairs areas with privacy
rooms. These will give the chimps easy access to views
of the kitchen activities. Sue Ellen, Loulis, and Tatu will
greatly benefit from this.
