I became "Gorilla Girl". My parents got me the movie Gorillas in the Mist, and during the poaching scenes in the end, I was so terrified, I adopted a gorilla from the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund right after. But I wanted to do more to help. I gathered my friends to form 'Kids Save Apes'. I made a website, an email address, and spread the plight of the apes. I notified teachers, parents, kids, sentators, representatives, the president! Before I knew it, I had raised $1,000 standing in the cold winter telling everyone about the cause. This May, I get to meet Dr Jane Goodall with my Co-President James Brooks. On May 3rd, we hope to raise $800 dollars to adopt 16 apes. Thats how I'm taking part. And I am only 11 I have an organization called Kids Save Apes:
