With over 160,000 students participating in our learning programs each year, Zoos Victoria is one of Victoria’s largest outside-the-classroom educators.
You can help us to foster a passion for wildlife and conservation by making a donation to support one of our existing learning programs, or fund the development of one of our pilot programs. Your donation will help us conduct this valuable work and deliver lasting benefits to the community.
You can donate to support any of our learning projects, however we encourage you to support the following ‘feature’ projects:
Planet Keeper
Planet Keeper is an innovative learning program that aims to motivate and engage students to raise awareness of conservation issues, take action; and fundraise for an important cause, to support one of Zoos Victoria conservation projects and to help to save an endangered species. Students are given a deeper understanding of how their actions can affects wildlife and the natural world, and taught that, through making changes to their daily lives, they can make a difference.
Youth at the Zoo
Youth at the Zoo will empower young people, supported by a powerful mentor group and with all three zoos at their disposal, to create a business based around conservation, social issues, business excellence and fun. A self sufficient, member-based organisation, the intention for YATZ is to innovate major change at the zoos through engaging teenage passion and action.
