Story

Protect me and my tree  - We raised £15,000 for our Orangutan Release Programme - FANTASTIC! 


For actual reforestion of trees taking place for the rest of 2013, we're aiming to top this figure up to £20,000... Please help us skip and jump to this acheivable figure! 

The Lamandau River Wildlife Reserve is a 760km²  area of protected peat swamp forest in Central Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo. It is also an orangutan release site with more than 160 orangutans who have been given a chance of living wild once more. 

 

 The Orangutan Foundation operates an Orangutan Release Programme which incorporates a veterinary health care component. The establishment of a network of guard posts around the Reserve's border and our work with local village communities to promote the conservation and sustainable management of these forests are key to ensuring  that  the  growing  orangutan population remains healthy and viable.

 

 

For donations of £50 or more we’ll be delighted to send a pdf certificate acknowledging your donation. To request your certificate please e-mail info@orangutan.org.uk quoting the Justgiving donation reference number that appears on your confirmation e-mail. If you would like to make a gift donation on behalf of somebody else and receive a certificate in the their name then please call the office on +44 (0) 207 724 2912.

Please help us raise £15,000 - these orangutans deserve a life in the forest and the forests deserve to have orangutans in them.
