Pitch in now to help save Chendra from the bullhook

You Care About Elephants Like Chendra. Will You Help Us Put Up A Billboard to #FreeChendra? Donate Now Dear friends, Last year, Care2 members like you raised over $10,000 to put up a billboard in Los Angeles demanding that the LA Zoo and City Council free Billy the elephant. The billboard helped reinvigorate a decade-long campaign to send Billy to a sanctuary, and now we could be months away from victory. So let's do it again. Chendra is a semi-blind pygmy elephant languishing at the Oregon Zoo in Portland. She is often shunned by the other elephants, and there is evidence that the zoo has used a bullhook on her multiple times. We need to get her out of there, so we're going to put up a 50-foot billboard in Portland demanding Chendra's freedom. Will you chip in $5 to help make the #FreeChendra billboard possible? Animal welfare advocates have been trying for years to get Chendra released to a sanctuary. Over 280,000 people have even signed the Care2 petition supporting their efforts. But the Oregon Zoo is refusing to give up one of its best attractions. Our billboard will dramatically increase awareness of Chendra's sad existence, and help put some much-needed public pressure on the Oregon Zoo to do the right thing. So please pitch in what you can to help ensure that Chendra will not die behind bars. Together we can #FreeChendra! Thank you,   Lacey K. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. The billboard in Los Angeles played a huge role in moving the #FreeBilly campaign closer to success. Help us do the same for the fight to #FreeChendra. Donate Now
