SANTA MONICA, Calif. - Californer -- The Government of the Republic of Indonesia has officially recognized and extended its heartfelt appreciation to the Orang Utan Republik Foundation (OURF) and its Indonesian partner organizations for their pivotal role in orangutan and forest conservation through education. In a formal Statement of Recognition issued by the Embassy of Indonesia in Washington, D.C., the government acknowledged the Orangutan Caring Scholarship (OCS) Program's transformative impact over the past two decades.
Established in 2006, the Orangutan Caring Scholarship Program has provided university scholarships to hundreds of Indonesian students, empowering future conservation leaders in fields such as forestry, biology, veterinary science, and environmental education. The program supports Indonesia's broader efforts to protect its critically endangered orangutan populations and their natural habitats.
"On behalf of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia, and in honor of the 20th Anniversary of the Orangutan Caring Scholarship Program, we extend our heartfelt appreciation and official recognition to the Orang Utan Republik Foundation and its Indonesian partner organizations for their enduring contributions to orangutan and forest conservation through education," the letter states.
