The Akron Zoo strives to be a leading example of conservation action to benefit our natural world and its inhabitants. Professionals Advocating for Wildlife (P.A.W.) helps the Akron Zoo fulfill that mission by advocating and fundraising for the zoo.

Learn about the conservation work your Akron Zoo participates in while enjoying drinks, food and friends.
