Orang Utan Republik Foundation volunteers will be doing outreach, education, and fundraising events on a continuous basis in communities across the country and around the world. This page will list those events that are open to the public so that you or your friends can learn more about and support OURF’s efforts to raise awareness in order to save the species. If you are interested in hosting an event, please contact us at info@OrangUtanRepublik.org. We can discuss various ways you can get involved to make a difference.

Description of Event: Get Ready to Rock for a Cause!
The Orang Utan Republik Foundation (OURF) is hosting a weeklong online auction featuring an incredible lineup of Rock, Cinema, and Sports Memorabilia — with all proceeds supporting OURF’s vital education and conservation programs.
Whether you’re a fan of Metallica, Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Carlos Santana, David Bowie, or Paul McCartney, this is your chance to own a piece of music history! Discover signed guitars, autographed album displays, and rare sheet music, along with exclusive movie and TV posters, photo displays, and collectible sports items—some of which are nearly impossible to find anywhere else.
Bid, win, and make an impact — because every item you claim helps protect orangutans and their rainforest homes.
Check out our current curated list of items at https://app.charityauctionstoday.com/auctions/rock-for-the-forest-44342
Spread the word so we can have plenty of bidders trying to score a piece of music, cinema, or sports history.
