The Kansas City Zoo needs you so that we can continue to make a real difference for the natural world. You have the opportunity to permanently change the future of the world for you, your children, and grandchildren.

Animal adoptions are a unique, fun way to help us feed and care for our more than 1,700 animals. For less than a dollar a day, you can help add to our naturalistic habitats, purchase toys for animal enrichment, and provide hundreds of pounds of food each day.

Purchasing a Kansas City Zoo animal plaque supports the feeding and care of our more than 1,700 animals. These plaques, which are placed permanently at the Zoo, are a great way to honor the memory of a loved one, commemorate a special occasion, or proclaim your family’s love of the Zoo.

The Kansas City Zoo's mission is to connect people to each other and the natural world to promote understanding, appreciation, and conservation. It is gifts like yours that help us continue to make a real difference for the natural world by allowing people to experience it firsthand. You have the opportunity to permanently change the future of the world for you, your children, and your grandchildren by helping to create those connections

With a little planning, you have the opportunity to ensure that future generations are able to experience the adventure and wonder of the Kansas City Zoo. By including a charitable gift within your overall estate and financial plans, you can provide your support far into the future.
