Our Mission
Our mission is two-fold. First, we save orangutans in immediate danger through rescue, rehabilitation, and re-introduction to protected rainforests. Second, and equally important, we protect and restore their wild habitat by working alongside the native communities bordering them.

In the Spotlight

This incredible show has it all, taking viewers on a roller coaster ride of adventures, heartaches, fun, friends, failures, and successes of all the orangutans who attend the BOS Foundation’s unique school.

Wildlife tourism has become a lucrative business worth around 250 billion dollars a year. These profits come at a cost. From the studio that brought you ‘Ivory Game’ comes a new and powerful documentary.

With your help, we plan to plant 400 more trees to help with reforestation efforts in BOSF’s Samboja Lestari rescue centre.
The gift that keeps on giving
Adoptions are a great way to support our work and make fantastic gifts! With your ongoing support, you become an integral part of your adopted orangutan’s journey back to the wild.
