Donate to the Zoo
Your support today ensures a bright tomorrow for your Dallas Zoo
Our mission is Engaging People & Saving Wildlife
When you donate to the Dallas Zoo, your gifts help provide vital resources needed to continue critical operations and impactful programs — this giving season and throughout the year. From offering exceptional care for our animals to sharing the wonder of the natural world with our community, supporters like you make it all possible.
Make a Gift
Make your fully tax-deductible gift to Dallas Zoo’s annual fund with our one-time or monthly options! Your gift this season fuels exceptional animal care, global conservation efforts, and unforgettable visitor experiences all year round.
Matching Gifts
Amplify the impact of your gift to the Dallas Zoo through your company’s matching gift program. Many employers match donations, memberships, and volunteer hours, and we make it easy!
Maximize Your Impact
When you gift non-cash assets such as stocks, IRA distributions, or donor-advised funds to the Dallas Zoo, you make a substantial impact on our mission without impacting your bank account. If you are interested in learning more about how you can meet or exceed your charitable giving goals and enjoy potential tax benefits, all while supporting the Zoo, please contact us at Development@DallasZoo.com.
