Giving Back:  Banana Phone <> Gearing Up for Gorillas 

Giving back is important at Banana Phone, which is why we're routing 1% of all sales to Gearing Up for Gorillas.

G4G focuses 100% on the conservation of the rare mountain gorilla in Virunga National Park, located in eastern DR Congo, by providing funding and equipment to the rangers who protect them.

Join us in helping provide what the rangers need and make a real difference to the future of the mountain gorilla. G4G has proven that practical assistance can be directed to where it really matters - to the rangers at the sharp end.

To learn more, checkout the award winning documentary Virunga on Netflix or visit the Gearing Up for Gorillas website at www.G4G.co.uk

Final Thoughts

Our Vision is simple 

Talk More 

  • In today's world, we're constantly distracted by texts, emails, and push notifications. 
  • Pick up a Banana Phone and call your friends and family. Have real conversations! 

Smile More 

  • Life is serious and it's easy to lose sight of what's important. 
  • Live a little! Banana Phones put smiles on faces and start great conversation.

Save Gorillas 

  • Not only is Banana Phone hilarious, it supports a great cause as well. 
  • Order a Banana Phone and help gorilla conservation in Virunga! 

Thank you so much for taking the time to review our project.  Your support is tremendously appreciated and we can't wait to take the next step in this journey.  From the beginning, this project has been outrageously fun, rewarding, and inspiring.  We're incredibly excited to get a Banana Phone in your hands. 

Many Thanks, 

Team Banana Phone
