If you want to adopt a gibbon or species to help save them from extinction, please send the following information with a check or money order to: GCC, PO Box 800249, Santa Clarita, CA 91380 USA
The gibbon's name or the species
The amount of your donation
Your name
Your address, city, state or province, zip or postal code and country
Your name (or the recipient, if a gift) as you would like it to appear on the certificate

Or email the above information to info@gibboncenter.org and use the PayPal button below to pay. Sorry, we have had to remove the online form because of spam.
