Support CNPRC For A Healthier Future

The California National Primate Research Center (CNPRC) is a recognized leader among the nation's animal research programs, serving as a research resource and a source of inspiration for tomorrow's scientific leaders. Our center advocates for the quality and compassionate care of animals in research and is dedicated to discovering the causes, preventions, treatments, and cures that will help both people and animals live longer, healthier lives.

Philanthropic support for the CNPRC helps us enhance our ability to combat diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, Autism, and Alzheimer's, train tomorrow's scientific leaders, and improve human health now and in the years to come.

Ways to Give and Support CNPRC

Research Excellence

Because the CNPRC addresses new and emerging public health issues as they arise, support for our research excellence fund is critical. Funds through research excellence help CNPRC leaders direct funding to high-priority and emerging projects as needs arise, bridging the gaps to help ensure success.

Education and Outreach

Part of the CNPRC's mission is to provide educational opportunities for students and teachers. Current programs include hosting educational, training, and internship programs for students interested in research science, animal science, and veterinary medicine. Funding is crucial to these outreach activities, which provide participants with opportunities not available in a traditional science classroom. 

Animal Enrichment

The groundbreaking discoveries at the CNPRC would not be possible without our dedication to the highest quality animal care and enrichment. This support helps supplement our budget to provide additional species-specific enrichment treats and toys for our animals. Because of such dedication to animal care and welfare, the CNPRC has maintained full accreditation from AAALAC International, the gold standard of laboratory animal care, since 1984.

How to Give

The philanthropic success of the CNPRC relies on the generosity of those who share our vision for advancing human and animal health research. Whether you are a corporate partner, a graduate looking to give back, a member of the CNPRC family, or someone who believes in the transformative research conducted here, there are many ways to show your support. The ongoing generosity of our individual donors and corporate partners is essential to fulfilling our mission of training, discovery, understanding, and clinical application.
