Make a Lasting Gift to Ensure the Future of the Zoo
We are grateful to our annual donors who so generously support us. We are also very appreciative of our supporters who have included the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium in their estate plans. Your gifts to the Zoo are more important than ever as we continue to empower people and save wildlife.
Your support allows us to continue to fulfill the vision of Jack Hanna, who over three decades ago, began the Zoo’s transformation into the world-class facility it is today. When you give to the Zoo, you join a community passionate about connecting people and wildlife. Your generosity creates experiences that bond families, inspires students, advances conservation around the world and sparks a lifelong appreciation for the animals we all love.
Through thoughtful planning, there are a number of ways you can make meaningful contributions while at the same time meeting personal planning goals. Bequests, retirement assets, life insurance, stock, various trust vehicles and gift annuities are all ways to benefit the Zoo and they can also provide you with income tax benefits and estate tax benefits.
We would be happy to talk to you and to your advisors to find a gift that benefits you and the Zoo. If you have any questions, please contact Suzy Lucci, Gift Planning, at 614-724-3613 or at suzy.lucci@columbuszoo.org.
