Raising money for

Orangutan Foundation

Charity Registration No. 1095660

The Orangutan Foundation is the world's foremost orangutan conservation organisation. We are saving Asia's endangered great apes by protecting their tropical forest habitat, working with local communities and promoting research and education.

The approach of the Orangutan Foundation goes beyond that of purely protecting the orangutan. Critically it also includes a recognition that orangutan habitat is unique in it's richness of biodiversity and crucial for local communities, who are as dependant on the forest as is the orangutan.

Conservation is more than protecting a species, it is about saving nature which includes us, 'the fifth ape'. The efforts of all of us to prevent global warming will be seen as a defining moment in history, for humanity's sake and for the health of the whole planet. Tropical forests can play a significant role in guarding against climate change.

My story

Protect me and my tree - Help us to raise £15,000 for our Orangutan Release Programme.

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.
