Help Us

1. Do NOT purchase gibbons, or products derived from gibbons.

 

2. Do NOT take photographs with illegal baby gibbons in exchange for money. If you see any illegal gibbon trade or illegal poachers, please inform the National Park, Wildlife and Plant Department or local police. Unfortunately, the GRP does not have the authority to confiscate these gibbons, but would be more than happy to forward the information.

 

3. By supporting the conservation of the rainforest you are protecting the gibbons' habitat and preventing the main cause for their endangered status - deforestation.

 

4. Become a volunteer for the GRP!

Interested to be volunteer please contact volunteer@warthai.org

If you have an education in any of the following areas there could be a great opportunity for you to gain experience in the field and develop your skills, while helping a worthwhile cause and learning about life in a totally different culture.

• Biology, Zoology, Primatology

• Botany, Ecology, Conservation

• Education, ecotourism

Here volunteers can help in the care of our rescued gibbons, and can assist our efforts to return these small intelligent arboreal apes to their natural habitat and to protect their natural habitat through public education.  Volunteers make a donation to the GRP as well as giving their time and energy.

 

5. Make a donation to the project.

The GRP is a Non Government Organization. It is currently funded by donations from the public visiting our Centre for Conservation Education and Fundraising at Bang Pae Waterfall and from our volunteer programme.  We also have donation boxes in various locations throughout Phuket. We constantly need money to provide cages, food, veterinary care and scientific equipment for the project. The Wild Animal Rescue Foundation of Thailand (WAR), our parent organization, contributes during low seasons and when an expensive necessity is required.  Cash donations can be sent directly to our account: Wild Animal Rescue Foundation of Thailand Thailand A/C # 573-0-158143 Bangkok Bank, Thalang branch.

 

6. Purchase merchandise from our shop - The small profit goes toward the maintenance and upkeep of the project!

 

7. Adopt a gibbon

 

8. Other help!

We also welcome any other support that you or your organization can offer. Examples include assistance with medicines, medical equipment, materials for cages and enrichment or new cages. People, companies and universities are invited to help us with sponsorship of education material, our website and other work we may be doing that is not within our limited budget. Please feel free to contact us with your suggestions.
