In 2007, Rhiannon Tomtishen and Madison Vorva founded Project ORANG (Orangutans Really Appreciate and Need Girls Scouts). They discovered that palm oil, a key ingredient in Girl Scout cookies, contributes significantly to orangutan habitat destruction.

This revelation prompted them to campaign for the Girl Scouts to replace palm oil with an eco-friendly alternative. Partnering with Rainforest Action Network, they co-authored a petition that generated over 70,000 emails to the Girl Scouts headquarters. Both are admirers of Jane Goodall.
