                        25 orangutans will die today. Just like yesterday, 
and tomorrow.

                        Palm oil deforestation is killing the last 
orangutans on our planet, and if we don’t act now, there won’t be any left 
by the end of the decade.

                        We’ve got a plan to stop this massacre before it's 
too late, but we need your help to double up now. Will you make a small 
monthly donation to save the orangutans from palm oil destruction?



                        Donate $1 monthly
                        Donate $3 monthly
                        Donate $5 monthly
                        Donate another amount monthly
                        No thanks, but I'll make a one-time donation.


            Orangutans need trees to live. But profit-hungry companies are 
tearing down and burning their rainforest homes to grow palm oil trees 
instead. Orangutans are shot dead when they dare explore these new 
plantations.

            Mondelez, Nestlé, and Unilever all buy this dirty palm oil. It’s 
everywhere, from snacks to detergents and make-up. These palm oil-thirsty 
brands promised to clean up their act by 2020 -- but they’ve failed 
miserably.

            But with your help, we can save the last orangutans from cheap 
palm oil.

            Your power has already convinced companies like McDonald’s, 
Starbucks, and PepsiCo to commit to no-deforestation palm oil policies. You 
can help us do it all again -- and save the orangutans before they’re gone 
for good.

            A small monthly gift from you will help roll out tried and true 
winning tactics to transform the whole industry -- before it’s too late. Can 
I count on your small monthly donation today?

            Donate $1 monthly
            Donate $3 monthly
            Donate $5 monthly
            Donate another amount monthly
            No thanks, but I'll make a one-time donation.

            Multinational corporations’ greed for cheap palm oil has 
decimated the rainforests where orangutans live. Every year, millions of 
acres of pristine rainforest are destroyed -- and replaced by huge palm oil 
plantations.

            Deprived of their natural habitat, orangutans starve. When they 
feed off palm fruits on plantations, they’re shot. Villagers often find dead 
orangutans -- in 2018, one unlucky orangutan was shot 130 times in Borneo.

            A monthly donation from you, Vladimir, would put us one step 
ahead of palm oil villains. Just a few coins a month will help us get the 
necessary intel, respond to more tip-offs, and roll out even bolder tactics 
to compete with Nestlé, Mondelez, and Unilever’s well-oiled, well-funded 
marketing machines.

            With your continued support, we can force the palm oil industry 
to adopt and enforce stronger standards to protect the rainforest. We CAN 
save the orangutans before it's too late -- but we can only do that with you 
by our side.

            Can you make a monthly gift to save the orangutans?

            Donate $1 monthly
            Donate $3 monthly
            Donate $5 monthly
            Donate another amount monthly
            No thanks, but I'll make a one-time donation.

            The industry had a firm deadline to achieve its no-deforestation 
goal by 2020. But instead of actually doing anything about it, it was all 
empty promises and expert greenwashing.

            Campaigning to push the palm oil industry to do the right thing 
costs money -- whether it’s with brand-jamming ads and billboards, viral 
videos, or commissioning research to dig up dirt on them.

            We may never match the deep pockets of Unilever and Nestlé, but 
when all of us chip in a little bit, we become powerful enough to take them 
on.

            Will you please make a monthly gift to save the orangutans?

            Donate $1 monthly
            Donate $3 monthly
            Donate $5 monthly
            Donate another amount monthly
            No thanks, but I'll make a one-time donation.


            Thanks for all that you do,
            Fatah and the SumOfUs team
