Payment can be made in full or in monthly installments. After you pay online you will receive an email from us with a link back to our site, where you will be able to download your adoption certificate & full color high-resolution photos. You will also find your orangutan’s full history. If you do not receive the email, please check your spam box, as it may have been flagged. If it is not there, please email us. There will be updates and new photos of your orangutan(s) throughout the year.

Orangutan adoptions are not a perfect science. Sometimes there are delays in the updates. The rescue centers are short-staffed and getting materials takes time. Thanks for your patience. We’re all doing our best.

Our adoption system is optimized for Paypal. However, you do not need a Paypal account to make a general donation. All transactions are guaranteed by Paypal and your credit card information is fully encrypted in order to ensure maximum security. If you have any trouble with the payment process, please contact us.

If you wish to pay by check, please make it payable to Orangutan Outreach and send to:

Orangutan Outreach
Attn: Richard Zimmerman
225 E 76th St, #6F
New York, NY 10021

Please email us to let us know that the check will be arriving. Include your full name, address and which orangutan(s) you want to adopt. Unfortunately if you do not have access to an email account you will not be able to adopt. We are making every effort to keep our orangutan adoption campaign as environmentally friendly as possible by conserving paper, energy and fuel at all times. Paper come from trees. Orangutans live in trees. Without trees, orangutans have nowhere to live. We like orangutans better than envelopes. Don’t you?

Finally, please note that funds collected for orangutans will be used for medicine, food, equipment, rescue operations, cage repairs and hundreds of other items that are necessary to rehabilitate the orangutans and keep the projects going. A minimal amount will be used for administrative costs in the US to continue to build up the organization so that we can rescue & care for more orangutans. For more information, please contact us.

We are grateful for your support. Thank you. {:(|}
