Why Banana?
People often ask us, “Why Banana?” Well, here’s the story. When Eyal (our CEO) was 8, he lived in Ethiopia with his family for 4 years while his parents served there as a Mossad agent and military man. While there, they rescued a monkey named JoJo. Eyal chose the name Banana to remember his past. Plus, why not make finance a little more fun?
But that’s not all. Eyal continues to be a champion for the endangered species and is now a guardian for Caesar, a young chimpanzee orphan rescued by the Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Sierra Leone. Through the Tacugama Guardianship Programme, Eyal can financially support Caesar’s rehabilitation and education, as well as the Tacugama conservation and research programs. All subspecies of chimpanzees are endangered, and the Western chimpanzee is critically endangered. Join Eyal and sponsor your own chimpanzee at www.tacugama.com.
