Making Mission Impossible Possible

My story: Orangutan Adventure Trek: Preliminary Fundraising Effort 


I can't believe It! I am about to embark on a life long mission heading off to the Sumatran Jungle in Indonesia, to see Orangutans in the wild for the first time



This is a lifelong dream come true for me, as I have been raising funds and awareness of the plight of the Orangutans for over 3 years now.


"Orangutans will face extinction within the next few years. This is a serious issue that affects us all. Without remaining rainforests being protected, the ecosystem faces a great threat.


We perpetuate this crisis situation by purchasing products that contain palm oil and add to the demise of precious habitat. Read your labels when you purchase your next bar of soap!


If it says made from pure VEGETABLE OIL then DONT BUY IT!!!!"



I am raising funds for the trek with 13 other passionate trekkers. To help me along and make a difference to the lives of orangutans in Summatra, please send a donation to www.everydayhero.com.au/tracey_courtney


All donations are tax deductible.





This amazing fundraising trek through the jungles of Sumatra is in support of Rainforest Rescue.
I will be visiting the Bukit Lawang viewing centre, trekking through the stunning rainforests of Indonesia and contributing toward the protection of this vital ecosystem.
