Adoption Programmes
Choose between our programmes where all funds go directly towards the sustainability and conservation work of The Datai Pledge, with all proceeds shared equally amongst the four NGO and social enterprise partners:
- Adopt A Coral – Coral fragments collected from vulnerable reefs are available for adoption before they are rehabilitated at the Coral Nursery (an ex-situ facility to help corals recover) and transplanted back into the sea, either on coral frames or artificial reefs.
- Adopt A Tree – Collected seedlings and saplings nurtured into trees at the Native Tree Nursery can be adopted and replanted as part of the ongoing reforestation programme.
- Adopt A Dolphin (to be launched soon) – Partnering with the only marine mammal conservation NGO in Malaysia, MareCet, this programme benefits their long-running conservation project on Indo-Pacific Humpback Dolphins and Indo-Pacific Finless Porpoises within the Langkawi archipelago.
- Adopt A Hornbill Nesting Box (to be launched soon) – With the expertise of hornbill conservationist and social enterprise Gaia, habitat restoration can be achieved by building artificial nesting boxes to boost the population of Great Hornbills.
