Zoo Learning Fund

The Zoo Learning Fund (ZLF) was established in 1989 to set up an endowment to fund education programming at the Kansas City Zoo. Since that date ZLF has provided more than $1.5 million in educational programming. These programs have paved the way for outstanding opportunities for schools, teachers, tots, children and their parents and grandparents.

Some uses of these funds include teaching kits highlighting Africa, Australia, and endangered species; a Zoo library with many resources; outreach program materials and a reliable vehicle; education interns; special animal shows; computer equipment and teacher training events.

A percentage of the profits from Jazzoo, the Zoo's largest fund-raising event, are given to the Zoo Learning Fund.

These small cats can pull birds from the air. We keep them far away from the aviaries.
