About Gifts for the Orangutans

We will email you a certificate to show how your gift could help the orangutans at Sepilok Rehabilitation Centre.

They make a great gift for friends and loved ones. It is a thoughtful present for them whilst making a real difference for the orangutans who need our help.

The certificate can be kept for yourself to remind you of how you have helped a great cause. Alternatively, you can forward it onto your gift recipient or print it out for them.

The money that you and other kind supporters spend on gifts for the orangutans will support the full range of Orangutan Appeal UK's work.

Gifts for the orangutans are only processed and sent during office hours (Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm GMT).

Climbing Lesson for the Orangutans

£40.00 each

A baby orangutan in the wild will spend up to 6-7 years with its mother and will learn everything it needs to know from her, including how to climb. Very young babies will cling to their mums constantly. It takes them a long time to build up the skills needed to be able to swing confidently through the rainforest. The orphans at Sepilok do not have a mum to teach them to climb. This means that human carers need to teach them instead. Orangutan Appeal UK funds a training co-ordinator called Victor who has the job of giving the orangutans their climbing lessons. Your gift of £40 could help to fund this vital work.

Once purchased we will email you with a certificate about your Gift for the Orangutans.

If you are purchasing a Gift for the Orangutans as a present on someone else's behalf then feel free to forward the certificate onto them or print it out.
