our vision
Helps us turn this apparel brand into a real club.
The more you wear and share our product, the more we can grow – and turn this brand into a real club, creating more activities to support the gorillas.
20% of our revenue to the gorillas
Every item sold supports local conservation efforts and livelihoods — protecting both the forest, the gorillas and the local communities connected to it. Our donation goes through trusted conservationist Dr. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka and her team.
The gorillas
The mountain gorilla in East Africa (DRC, Rwanda and Uganda) is declared as endangered specie by WWF. Total number left: 1.000. Controlled tourism in the 3 countries is helping funding important conservation and protection of the gorillas.
The batwa people
The original pygmies who lived in the forest with the gorillas. To protect the mountain gorillas and their habitat, the government declared the area as protected. This decision resulted in the forced eviction of the Batwas from the only home they had ever known.
Dr. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka
Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka was Uganda’s first wildlife veterinary officer and founder of Conservation Through Public Health, an organisation dedicated to the coexistence of endangered mountain gorillas, other wildlife, humans, and livestock in Africa.
