The Gift of Grub Helps All Year Long
2014 was an incredible year of growth here at the Houston Zoo. We welcomed many adorable babies such as our okapi calf, Miraq. Along with our new babies, many animals rely on specialized diets that we work hard to provide. Our Gift of Grub campaign, which supports the care and feeding of our more than 6,000 animal residents, received enormous support this year in 2014. We wanted to take a minute to sincerely thank all those who contributed to our Gift of Grub campaign. Your donations make a huge difference and we are very grateful. Thank you! Additionally, we were both flattered and thrilled when our partner, TXU Energy, announced that they would once again match every Gift of Grub donation up to $50,000 total! Since 2010, TXU Energy has doubled the impact of our donors through this matching gift challenge. More than 1,300 donors joined TXU Energy by contributing over $107,000 and counting to the 2014 Gift of Grub Campaign!
Even though it may be redundant, here it is one more time: Thank you TXU Energy, and thank you to all those who gave the Gift of Grub!
