• Description:
  Rehabilitation, Education, Sanctuary - The Vervet Monkey Foundation is a non-profit organization (#020 694 NPO) established in 1993. Our centre is based in Tzaneen in the Limpopo Province of South Africa. We rehabilitate and provide sanctuary to over 500 primates, orphaned, injured, abused, ex-laboratory or unwanted pets. With no government funding, our sanctuary depends on local volunteers and from abroad to help care for our primates. Volunteers are involved in day-to-day hands-on activities of providing care for monkeys, along with building and maintenance of our 23-hectare facility. Become involved, volunteer to work with wildlife in South Africa. Training will be provided in monitoring primates in enclosures, preparing food and feeding including bottle-feeding babies, and in general primate husbandry. Volunteers make a financial contribution for their stay to cover vegetarian or vegan meals, accommodation, and ongoing operational costs of the sanctuary.
