Sponsor an Animal

How would you pay a $250,000 grocery bill? That's what it costs the Minnesota Zoo each year to feed the wild and wonderful animals here! By sponsoring an animal your school can help us purchase the crickets, mice, mealworms, fish and lots of fruits and vegetables that are on our grocery list.

With a contribution of $25 your class will receive a personalized certificate, a fact sheet about your sponsored animal, and an Animal Sponsor magnet. Depending on your level of sponsorship you may receive an attractive wood plaque to display at your school, posters, photo, an animal ornament, the Zoo newsletter and your school's name listed on your animal's exhibit!

This is a wild community service project for Student Councils or classrooms. For a brochure, fund raising ideas or more information call (952) 431-9216 or visit our Sponsor an Animal web page.
