Statue of three otters at Akron Zoo

Capital funds support the growth of the Akron Zoo and help in the expansion and renovation of animal habitats and zoo facilities.

Additionally, they can be used to provide the equipment needed by the zoo such as tools for the animal hospital or machines used to maintain our beautiful grounds. Your gift makes a difference in the work we do at the Akron Zoo.

Online donations are easy. Also, turn your donation into a recurring gift which can be set-up monthly, quarterly, or annually online or over the phone by calling 330-375-2550 ext. 7249. You can help us build a better zoo!
