The charity shown in this video is called Health in Harmony, which funds the clinic on Borneo known as ASRI.
You can make a donation to Health in Harmony online:
healthinharmony.org/donate
The ASRI clinic Facebook page is here:
facebook.com/AlamSehatLestari
As well as trading health care for forest protection, the project also teaching farmers how to farm organically (far more productive and less destructive than traditional slash-and-burn) and -- as you can see in the video -- buying back chain saws.

Here's an update -- I just received this e-mail from Health in Harmony:
Hi Peter,
This is great! We love the video - thank you so much for sharing it! We'd already seen a handful of donations over the past couple days from your latest video, and I just checked our system - almost 15 donations and a couple thousand dollars just in the last hour. Wow! Thank you, Peter; your generosity and that of your followers never ceases to amaze me. This is particularly helpful as we are nearing the deadline on the truck campaign and getting so close to fully funding it. Thanks for calling that out specifically in the video.
And update again on 6 September: HiH tell me 100 donors gave $5,000+ overnight! A huge thanks from Health in Harmony, and from me.
