Orangutan Foundation International Australia
(AU, 71160405103) Browse events
YTD Raised: $10,225.23Our main mission is to support the orangutan and forest conservation efforts initiated by Dr. Biruté Mary Galdikas and Orangutan Foundation International (OFI) in Kalimantan, Borneo. Orangutan Foundation International Australia (OFIA) has two core campaigns; caring for orphaned and displaced orangutans at the OFI Care Centre in Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo; and, securing habitat for their future release. We currently help care for over 330 orangutans in our Care Centre. These orangutans have been orphaned due to the destruction of their habitat caused by illegal logging, mining and palm oil plantations. Without the OFI Care Centre, these apes would be homeless and most likely dead. We think of the Care Centre as a half-way house for orangutans, providing them with food, shelter, love and attention until they are old enough to be released back into the wild. However, for that eventual release to be successful, we need to secure land to ensure they have a safe place to live. Through The Orangutan Legacy Forest project, OFIA is purchasing and protecting land in Central Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo, keeping wild orangutans safe and creating a much needed sanctuary for the release of rehabilitated orangutans.

Maggie's Rescue (AU, 81412716367) Browse events
YTD Raised: $7,467.00We are a registered animal welfare charity, a co-operative of carers that support animals in need of homes. Our goal is to find these animals their permanent homes in families who will commit to loving them for life. When you talk to the carer for a particular animal, that person is usually looking after the care of that animal and knows the dog or cat well. Any animal we rehome has been desexed, vaccinated and microchipped and we worm all animals on arrival in our care. We are committed to No Kill philosophy and believe that public education and desexing is the cornerstone of this. We aim to have basic obedience for each dog by the time of rehome in place and offer ongoing telephone assistance for new owners if needed. www.maggiesrescue.org
