Fundraising
We highly encourage donations to help support the Mountain Gorilla Conservation Fund. The Fundraising Toolkit will provide resources to help you raise funds for this valuable cause, and the incentives are our way of saying thank you. We greatly appreciate all the effort and time you put into raising money!
Donations Support the Mountain Gorilla Conservation Fund
With your participation you help preserve the highly endangered Mountain Gorilla in the jungles of Rwanda, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Mountain Gorilla Conservation Fund has been dedicated to the preservation of the Mountain Gorilla ever since Dian Fossey, who studied gorillas for 18 years before her death, asked for help in 1985.

Pledge Incentives
We ask Austin Gorilla Run (AGR) participants to be the best they can be! Ask your family and friends to join the cause. The mountain gorillas need your help. We challenge you to help us raise more money than has ever been raised before for their conservation. When you give, you should receive; that’s why we offer many cool pledge incentives.
Group Fundraising Incentives:
Your group’s goal is to raise $3000. When you reach the $3000 goal, your team will be given one custom Silverback Cruiser bike.
The “Silverback” team leader determines who receives the custom bike. Groups may draw to determine the recipient or give the bike to the highest fundraiser—it’s up to each group to decide!
There are multiple ways to raise the funds.
- Offline donations may be made by texting GORILLA to 85944 for a $10 donation, cash, or check made payable to MGCF. Keep track of all offline and text donations on the donation/pledge form from the Fundraising Toolkit.
