$100 - Centennial Adoption Package
Celebrate our Centennial Anniversary with our limited-edition giraffe adoption package. Secure your adoption today and be a part of this historic milestone!
Packages can be purchased online or in our Nature Shop during the zoo's operating hours.
Connect with your favorite Elmwood Park Zoo animal through this unique and fun program! When you become a “ZooParent,” you donate to the direct care and feeding of select animals in the zoo’s collection. ZooParents provide the funds for the zoo to purchase special toys and treats for their animals to enjoy. Your donation helps to pay for the considerable amount of food – anything from crickets to bales of hay – that the zoo’s animals like to eat. Remember, a portion of your gift is tax deductible! Become a ZooParent today!
Please allow 2 to 3 weeks for processing.
