The Borneo Project Board covers our administration expenses, so 100% of your donations go to help urgent initiatives in Borneo. Here’s how you can help:

 

PENAN COMMUNITY SCHOOLS:

Help Penan children learn to read, write, and prepare for school at indigenous-language community schools in three Penan villages. These communities are threatened by logging and plantation encroachment. They want their children to grow to be educated, skilled advocates for indigenous rights. Let's help them protect their forests and culture.

                              

LEGAL AID FUND:

Enable indigenous communities of Sarawak to challenge industrial land grabs by filing native customary land rights claims in court. Native right lawyers allocate funds to the neediest communities to subsizide villagers' deposit and filing fees.
