- Conservation education programs in Indonesia, Malaysia and the U.S.
- Fund field research projects
- Support Indonesian wildlife healthcare worker education
- Stage the annual Orangutan Conservancy Veterinary Workshop
Virtual Adoption
The Orangutan Conservancy (OC) is emphasizing its commitment to wild orangutan conservation by offering for virtual adoption seven orangutans currently living in the Kutai National Park in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. By partnering with the Orangutan Kutai Project and the Kutai National Park authority, OC believes it can spur support and awareness of the wild orangutans in this fragile region.
Fundraising
Organize a fundraiser on behalf of the Orangutan Conservancy to raise awareness for the orangutans’ plight. By staging an event in your class, school, workplace, or even at your local community center you too can help fund future projects on the ground in Southeast Asia. We encourage creativity when thinking about hosting a fundraising event.
