"It's critical to involve local people in conservation efforts," OURF Director Dr. Gary Shapiro explains. "The new Student Sponsorship Program will keep the OCS thriving in the years ahead."

Potential donors can learn about six exceptional students who represent the entire scholarship program. The students were nominated by the implementing organizations that locally promote and manage the OCS.

"When you sponsor a student, you'll receive a student biography and and an e-Certificate of Guardianship," Shapiro says. "You can also follow your student's progress as they submit periodic updates on their matriculation."

Patterned after the orangutan adoption programs, funds collected by this program will be used to support all of the students who are receiving fiscal support.
