Did you know
Scientists predict there are less than 15,000 Orangutans left in the wild!
Without action these amazing apes could be EXTINCT in the next 10 years.
YOU can help
The Orangutan Appeal UK has 5 places in the Bupa Great South Run, a 10 mile event being held on Sunday 26th October 2008.
We are looking for individuals to take part on behalf of the Orangutans and raise vital funds for projects supporting their conservation and rehabilitation across Borneo. This includes pioneering post release research, plus helping to ensure orphaned and injured Orangutans can be rescued and taught all the skills they need to survive in the wild.
Please take up the challenge and give them a second chance!
Supporting YOU to support THEM
All Team Orangutan runners will receive a free Fundraising pack and Race Kit containing items such as sponsorship forms, newsletters, a DVD about the plight of the Orangutans and a race day T-shirt
No time to waste
Time is literally running out for these amazing apes, so If you would like to join the race to save the Orangutans, please call 01590 622966 or send us an email to find out how to apply. The closing date for entries is Friday 15th August.
Adopting a young orang is an excellent way to help the projects and get something back in return.
