The Cleveland Zoological Society and Cleveland Metroparks Zoo share a joint mission: We create compelling experiences that connect people with wildlife and inspire personal responsibility for conserving the natural world.
Join Us
Philanthropy catalyzes excellence at the Zoo, and we are seeing this take shape in Primate Forest through the generosity of our donors. The Zoo Society prides itself on managing contributions efficiently and transparently and is committed to engaging donors in Zoo programs and initiatives of greatest impact for our community and our world.
Your philanthropic support will make the second phase of this project possible. The Zoo Society has been key to a thriving Cleveland Metroparks Zoo for almost seven decades, and we are honored to help usher the Zoo into a new era with Primate Forest, the capstone project in its history.
