Club Peduli Orangutan Indonesia (the Orangutan Caring Clubs of Indonesia) are the Indonesian action branches of OUREI Indonesia and OURF. Formed following the initial declaration of Orangutan Caring Week in November 2005, CPOI came about by the interest of young Indonesians who gathered in the office of Angelina Sondakh, OUREI Ambassador, who helped promote Orangutan Caring Week. Angelina inspired these young people to answer the call of community service and take the initiative in establishing outreach programs in various cities in Indonesia. Clubs were initially established in Jakarta, Java and Medan, North Sumatra with Angelina officially opening both chapters. Ridhwan Effendi, Angelina's senior staff and manager of OUREI Indonesia, oversees the operation of the various Caring Clubs.

CPOI-Sumut (Orangutan Caring Club of North Sumatra) is an active chapter with an office in Medan, North Sumatra. CPOI-Sumut is a member of the Sumatran Orangutan Education Consortium and is well respected among the various provincial governmental offices.

CPOI-Sumut has implemented numerous outreach and education programs since 2006. In recent years CPOI-Sumut have delivered innovative education programs in local Medan schools, held Orangutan Youth Camps, coordinated Orangutan Caring Week activities, and have created and held after school education programs in their offices for hundreds of local children.

They have also participated with the local Forestry Department in distributing and planting trees and have developed and promoted urban conservation programs the "Greening of Wedding" and school yard tree-planting programs. Their Student Ambassador program encourages selected youth from each school to continue their involvement with CPOI-Sumut. CPOI-Sumut has also integrated community health programs within their array of projects.

CPOI-Sumut will be working with OURF in implementing the Mobile Education and Conservation Unit (MECU) Program in 2010/2011. The US Fish & Wildlife Service funded MECU Program will not only provide them with a rugged vehicle to access remote villages, but will enable them to deliver education and training to people in 16 villages near orangutan habitat in order to reduce the conflict between villagers and the ape populations.
