Project Borneo: Igniting Change One Candle at a Time
While a candle may seem like just a decorative piece or a source of light and fragrance, at Colugo Candles, it represents so much more. Every candle you purchase not only elevates your living space but also contributes to a mission close to our hearts—Project Borneo, a conservation and animal welfare charity. Here's how your simple act of buying a candle can ignite powerful changes in the rainforests of Borneo.
What is Project Borneo?
Project Borneo is a charitable initiative aimed at conserving the rich biodiversity of Borneo while ensuring the well-being of its unique animal species, particularly orangutans. The project focuses on habitat restoration, wildlife rescue and rehabilitation, and local community education and outreach.
How Your Purchase Helps
A portion of the profits from our specially marked Colugo Candles goes directly to Project Borneo. This funding aids various endeavours such as:
Animal Rescue: Rehabilitating injured or displaced animals, with the ultimate goal of returning them to their natural habitat.
Reforestation: Planting native trees and plants to restore destroyed or degraded forests.
Community Education: Educating local communities about the importance of wildlife conservation and offering sustainable alternatives to deforestation.
Transparency and Impact
We believe in complete transparency when it comes to our charitable contributions. That's why we provide regular updates on how the funds are being utilized, the progress of ongoing projects, and the impact your purchase has made.
Beyond Candles: A Call to Action
While purchasing our candles is a step in the right direction, we also encourage you to become an advocate for conservation. Share the knowledge you've gained, support ethical and sustainable businesses, and continue to educate yourself on how you can make a difference.
When you light a Colugo Candles , you're doing more than just adding ambiance to your surroundings—you're lighting a beacon of hope for the endangered ecosystems and species of Borneo. By supporting us, you become a key part of a community that's striving to make the world a better, more sustainable place for everyone.
Thank you for choosing to make a meaningful difference. Let's continue to ignite change, one candle at a time.
