The Zoo Society is celebrating a challenge grant award of $725,000 from the Kresge Foundation in support of African Elephant Crossing.
Our entire community should be proud that our Zoo’s request was fully funded during the toughest economic year in decades.
This is an enormous endorsement from one of the leading foundations in the country. It speaks to our
- Excellent African Elephant Crossing project — including our green standards
- Excellence as a well-run, respected organization
- Broad reach in the community
This pledge puts us within 10% of the goal. Help us finish the campaign and BRING THE HERD HOME!
New or increased gifts made through April 30, 2011 will be matched 1:1 by Kresge! That’s right; you can DOUBLE the impact of your gift. Add a matching gift from your company and have THREE times the impact.
Help make BIG things happen in our region and take the African Elephant Crossing Kresge Challenge.
