Lehigh Valley Zoo depends upon the support of our community. When you make a gift to the Zoo, you help support one of the most vibrant wildlife conservation education institutions in the region. The Zoo is the one place where children are most likely to enjoy their first positive experience with nature. Thank you for your interest in supporting Lehigh Valley Zoo!

ONE-TIME GIVING
One of the best ways for children to learn is through play. Situated between Preston’s Place (the existing nature play area) and the barnyard, the St. Luke’s Children’s Hospital Playground, with exciting new equipment, has a focus on accessibility for children of all abilities to be active while their caretakers take a rest.
MONTHLY GIVING
Take ownership of an exhibit, present an Event, or sponsor one of our many conservation or educational programs and showcase your brand to Zoo guests as they visit, view, and learn about the residents of the Zoo. Partnership components are customized to your organization’s objectives and include the support of the LV Zoo Creative Team, Social Media Manager, and Marketing Management.
