New generator for Tchimpounga

By Claire Quarendon | Office Administrator

 A new generator for Tchimpounga, thanks to YOU!

 Thanks to the generosity of our supporters Tchimpounga has a brand new generator.

 As you can see the old generator was really in need of replacing and thanks to you we were able to help.  The new generator has a large enough capacity for all the needs of the sanctuary.

 Your generosity has:

  • Water: Provided drinking water access to the chimpanzees, as well as for cleaning purposes (as per the Pan African Sanctuary Alliance’s and International Captive Primate Care’s standards).
  • Electricity: Provided electrical power to the office of the sanctuary, the housing for the staff, as well as to the veterinary clinic.
  • Security for the chimpanzee enclosures: Improved the security of the outdoor enclosures by reinforcing the solar power batteries when there is not enough natural sunlight to do so with the solar panels.

Ultimately you have:

  • Increased health and wellbeing for the chimpanzees and other animals under our care at the sanctuary through the implementation of a clean water system and active veterinary department.
  • Increased wellbeing of staff at the sanctuary.

Conclusion

The new generator provides the sanctuary with enough power to help cover all of our needs. Before having this new generator, the old one was constantly breaking down and we encountered numerous issues with the day to day operation of the sanctuary as well as the administration. The largest issue was always having access to water on a daily basis. Since the new generator was purchased, we have not run into any serious electrical issues at the site. This was a fantastic and much needed contribution to JGI Congo in general and the sanctuary more specifically.

 FROM EVERYONE AT TCHIMPOUNGA WE WOULD LIKE TO SAY A BIG

THANK YOU

TO ALL JGI UK SUPPORTERS
