Memorial/Honorary Gifts
A gift in honor or memory of a friend, family member or beloved pet is a wonderful way to remember them while recognizing their passion for the Reid Park Zoo. You can make a tribute gift on-line now, or call 520-881-4753 x 15
For longer term recognition opportunities you can adopt a bench. Beautiful benches, made from sustainable lumber, hold a brass plaque and are carefully placed around the Zoo. Additional bench information is included here, or you can call Mary at 520-791-3204 x 10 for information.
We are also always willing to work with you to create a custom opportunity to recognize your loved one through sculpture, zoo exhibits, or other naming opportunities.
Planned Gifts
The majority of planned gifts are made in bequests (including the Zoo in your will or trust). Bequests ensure that future generations will have the opportunity to love Reid Park Zoo as much as you do. Planned gifts help us prepare for future expansions and projects while allowing donors to enjoy a wide array of benefits today. Simply contact us so we can guide you in a way that works best for you and your family now, and in the future.

Many donors chose to take advantage of a gift to the Zoo in the form of appreciated securities. Before transferring stock, please contact us at 520-881-4753 x 15. We can discuss the benefits and details of the process with you. If your broker or financial advisor has questions, they are welcome to contact us as well.
