G Adventures calls for support for Gorillas

Gorillas are on the brink of extinction. They’re calling on YOU to donate your phone today

G Adventures are proud to be supporting the Jane Goodall Foundation, to raise money for Gorillas in the wild. You can help save Gorilla’s in Africa simply by donating your mobile phone!

Each time your mobile phone rings, a tiny piece of metallic ore from Africa is making this call possible: coltan. The mining of this commodity within the Congo River Basin is contributing to forest loss and unrest in the region, and is accelerating the loss of mountain gorillas at an alarmingly fast rate.

By donating your phone through the They’re Calling on You mobile phone recycling program you are:

• Diverting your phone from landfill
• Helping participating Zoos and Aquaria raise money to support the Jane Goodall Institute's primate conservation work in Africa through the sale of refurbished phones and…
• Lessening the demand for coltan mining by providing the coltan coated capacitor in your old mobile phone a second life.

To support the They’re Calling on You mobile phone recycling program you can:

Contact G Adventures Australia for a pre-paid postage satchel to be dispatched to you. You can then send your phone in the post free of charge.

Visit the G Adventures Concept Store in Melbourne and place your phones in the recycling bins provided.

Level 1, 172 Bridge Rd, Richmond, VIC

Phones are able to be sent from anywhere around Australia.
