Mission

The Red Panda Project is committed to protecting the red panda and preserving its habitat through the empowerment of local communities by adaptive community-based research, education, and sustainable development.

Vision

The Red Panda Project ensures the survival of the red panda and its habitat for future generations to study, experience and enjoy.

The Need

The red panda and its habitat are endangered due to conversion of forest to farms and pastures through overgrazing. The Red Panda Project creates innovative alternatives that increase the probability of survival of the red panda.

2. Wendee Holtcamp of National Wildlife Magazine joined one of our eco-trips alongside Brian Williams and wrote a first-hand account of the threats red pandas face for their survival and the work of RPN- Nepal’s Forest Guardians.

We are pleased to announce our new partnership with Shirts of Bamboo! (Shirtsofbamboo.com) Their shirts are soft, comfortable and best of all, made of nature’s most sustainable resource, bamboo. Our Red Panda Network T-shirts are a 70% Bamboo/ 30% Organic Cotton blend reflecting our commitment to the environment.

Shirts are available with a $50 or more donation or directly from the Shirts of Bamboo website. We are working to get children’s sizes up on our website and will let you know once they are available.
