Your lasting gift of Compassion can give a lifetime of Protection and Freedom
Download GuideConservation is a long-term and complex process. When you choose to leave a gift in your Will to The Orangutan Project, you will help ensure that we can continue to deliver on our conservation programs beyond your lifetime.
Your gift will have a profound and immediate impact, helping to protect thousands of acres of orangutan rainforests, support the rescue, rehabilitation and release of vulnerable orangutans, safeguard protected habitat areas and empower local and indigenous communities to become forest guardians.
Most importantly, by including The Orangutan Project in your Will, you’ll be imprinting your values in the world for all time. Your lasting act of Compassion will leave a legacy of Protection and Freedom.
There are several options for leaving a gift to The Orangutan Project in your Will, and it's important to choose what suits you best.
After deciding on the people and charities you wish to remember and selecting your executor, it's a good idea to consult with your solicitor to draft your Will.
Our Gift in Will guide provides details on the different types of gifts you can leave, along with recommended wording to ensure your contribution directly supports The Orangutan Project's mission.
Since Wills are legal documents, we strongly encourage seeking independent legal advice.
