Dear Friend,

Cleveland is fortunate to have one of the nation’s best zoos. A bold statement – and one that we’re proud to stand behind.

Ensuring that one of the finest nationally recognized conservation parks continues to thrive and offer some of the best educational outreach programs in the country takes a generous community to support – and you can help!

Did you know?
..it costs $100,000 to provide free transportation to and from the Zoo for thousands of underserved youth a year. Your Zoo is the only one in the country that provides a ZooBus for schools unable to afford field trip transportation.

..it takes $95,000 to feed our koalas every year. That’s about 1/5 of the entire animal care supply budget … but fresh and yummy eucalyptus ensures healthy animals and a great sight for visitors of all ages!

Become a Zoo Fund donor today. Sustain the Zoo Society’s unwavering commitment to the Zoo. Your gift will deliver a five-fold return, making it a smart investment in our community. All gifts are 100% tax-deductible.

Thank you!

Steve Taylor, Cleveland Metroparks Zoo	Elizabeth T. Fowler, Executive Director Cleveland Zoological Society
