Borneo Service Expedition 

During the 2024 Borneo Service Expedition, students and staff worked at the Kinabatangan River Eco Resort to restore a grass plantation — creating space for Pygmy elephants to return. And it worked! Elephants have been spotted enjoying the very grass our students planted! 

But their impact didn’t stop there…

The group also raised funds to adopt an injured orangutan, Agop, from the Sepilok Rehabilitation Centre. She’s now thriving—climbing trees, exploring, and growing in confidence! Each step she takes brings her closer to returning to her natural habitat. 

We are #mtaproud of our Borneo Crew—this truly is the trip that keeps on giving! 

Huge thanks to World Challenge for offering these global service opportunities.
