Monthly Giving 

The newest and easiest way to support your zoo! 

Zoo Boise connects our visitors with animals to inspire and involve our community in the conservation of wildlife worldwide. Zoo Boise is the home to more than 750 animals representing more than 100 different species from around the globe.  

For as little as $5 a month, you can join a group of dedicated supporters committed to making an ongoing, monthly contribution. Your monthly gift will provide dependable income to connect visitors with animals and inspire our community in the conservation of wildlife.  

It’s Easy

You choose your monthly giving amount when you sign up. That amount will be charged at the same time every month, based on when you make your first donation. Spreading your support throughout the year is a really convenient way to fit your donations into your personal budget. You can change the amount or cancel at any time. You can choose to pay via credit card or your bank account. 

It’s Efficient 

Monthly giving is paperless. We’ll send you a monthly electronic receipt and an annual printed statement in January summarizing your tax-deductible gifts, so deducting your donations is easy. 

It’s Effective 

Monthly giving helps sustain Zoo Boise’s mission all year long. You’ll provide a reliable stream of support for educating visitors and children in camps, assisting volunteers in running popular animal encounters, preparing healthy and tasty foods for the animals by the zoo chefs, and helping conservation partners in the field.  

Help us to continue to lead the way in connecting visitors with animals to inspire our community. Make a monthly donation today! 

Why become a monthly giver?  

Here’s what a few of our currently monthly givers said: 

Jan: I love that the zoo has partnered across the globe for the conservation of wildlife. Every time I ride the greenbelt and see people stopping to point at the giraffes, it's a reminder that we are the stewards for wildlife and the planet. I give to the zoo to be part of that legacy. 

Tom: I think there are two reasons we became monthly donors. First, it’s automatic, so I don’t have to worry that I might forget to send my contribution. Second, I expect it’s helpful to Zoo Boise to have a predictable contribution income stream. 

Dale: My children are older now, but I believe it is important to have a healthy and interesting zoo in our city. It increases our quality of living. Also, I love taking my grandchildren to the zoo when they visit Boise.
