Their future is still ours to change.
Colobus are at a turning point, but their future is not yet decided. Join as a SAFE Colobus partner or give directly to help move critical resources into action. Together, we can still change the trajectory for these threatened species. Because when enough of us choose to act, what feels inevitable can still be changed.

PROGRAM PARTNERSHIP
Connect to Colobus conservation impact in Africa.
AZA zoos are committed to field conservation, but building and managing international conservation activities is complex. SAFE Colobus offers institutions an accessible way to support colobus conservation across Africa, and, for black-and-white colobus holders, a direct way to connect your collection to on-the-ground impact in Africa. Join as a Program Partner to combine forces and help direct support where it’s needed most.
KEY BENEFITS
Only U.S. Program
SAFE Colobus is the only U.S.-based conservation initiative dedicated exclusively to protecting Africa’s threatened colobus species, giving your institution a unique, pioneering story of leadership.
ESTABLISHED FIELD PARTNERSHIPS
SAFE Colobus works with vetted field partners already conducting conservation efforts across colobus range countries. We help direct funding, expertise, and support to strengthen their work. Your zoo connects to real field conservation without needing to build those relationships independently.
YOUR SUPPORT GOES FURTHER, TOGETHER
Your contribution as a Program Partner augments a coordinated strategy across the AZA network with additional resources, shared expertise, and an established field program.
REPORTING CONSERVATION IMPACT
SAFE Colobus comes with a built-in reporting structure, including annual updates and conference report-outs shared across the network, so you can easily document your institutional impact.
DONATE DIRECTLY
A little can change a lot.
You don’t have to be a zoo, scientist, or conservation organization to help change the future of colobus. Your donation supports SAFE Colobus and the conservation work protecting threatened species and the forests they depend on. In a place where even modest resources can have meaningful impact, every contribution becomes part of something bigger.
