As residents of Mauldin, SC, USA, we are deeply connected to our city's landmarks and their names. The Harambe Memorial Bridge is more than just a structure; it symbolizes our collective memory and respect for Harambe. This bridge serves as a constant reminder to never forget Harambe, an innocent, legendary gorilla tragically killed in 2016 at the Cincinnati Zoo. (RIP)

Recently, there have been talks about changing the name of this significant landmark. We believe that such a change would not only disrespect our shared history but also erase an important symbol from our community.

The City of Mauldin has always been proud of its heritage and its commitment to preserving local culture. In keeping with this tradition, we urge you to maintain the name "Harambe Memorial Bridge".

Let it stand as a testament to our city's values and resilience.

Please sign this petition if you believe in preserving local history and honoring a LEGEND who left us too soon.

Your signature can make a difference in ensuring that we never forget Harambe.
