Boston Lobsters Help Save Chimpanzees

Jane Goodall is best known for her work with wild chimpanzees in Gombe’s Stream National Park in Tanzania.  She has studied chimps for more than 45 years.  She was the first to discover that chimps used tools and were aggressive with one another.   At age 79, she still travels 300 days advocating for her chimps and for conservation. 

20 years ago a group of teenagers sat down with Jane on her back porch in Tanzania.  They wanted to discuss problems that they saw in the world and how they could address those problems.  Out of that conversation, Roots & Shoots was born.  Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots (rootsandshoots.org) provides young people with the knowledge, tools and hopeful inspiration to improve the environment and the quality of life for people and animals.

Joan Norton, Independent Financial Advisor (www.joannorton.com) is sponsoring a Roots & Shoots event at the Boston Lobsters (www.bostonlobsters.net) this on July 21st.
