Be part of the society.

With your generous gift, we’re able to support the needs of our animal friends, provide programs fostering connection between visitors and animals, and make an impact with environmental and conservation initiatives.

We invite you to play an integral role in the development of new programs and support our mission-based efforts. As part of one of these societies, we offer exclusive invite-only events, up-close and personal encounters with our animal friends, early access to open registrations, and more. With an annual gift of $1,000 or more, you can participate in exclusive benefits, while knowing you have played an important role in our Zoo’s future. YOU are part of what keeps the Zoo alive and roaring with pride.

Society Levels:

Guardian Giving Society | $1,000+ annually

The Guardian Giving Society was established to cultivate, recognize, and steward relationships with our dedicated supporters. These donors provide substantial support to the Zoo’s ability to create memorable experiences for visitors and spark a lifelong appreciation for animals.

Wildlife Legacy Society | those who have included the Zoo in their estate plan or provided a transformational gift to the Zoo.

The Wildlife Legacy Society was established to engage the Zoo’s most elite and visionary supporters, changing the way visitors engage with wildlife. The Wildlife Legacy Society is committed to the Zoo’s future and holds a special status within our family.
