The Many Ways of Giving

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world." - Margaret Mead

If you have been inspired to help the Houston Zoo, but you don't know where to start, view the links below to find the best fit for you. 


Why support the Houston Zoo?

As the only non-profit, privately funded zoological park in the Texas Gulf Coast area, the Houston Zoo relies exclusively on guests, members, and donors to provide annual operating revenue and capital support. Donors play a crucial role in the success of the Houston Zoo's education and animal care programs, global field projects, and local conservation initiatives. 

By supporting the Houston Zoo, you support one of the most important and effective cultural, educational, and conservation organizations in the region. The Zoo has touched and changed millions of lives through its programs, school and family activities, events, and outreach programs and has gained international respect with its reputation for conservation and research work with endangered species. And, we have only just begun; there is so much more to come.
