Donations

A donation to the Jackson Zoo not only supports animal care, but educational programming and conservation efforts as well. Your contribution is important because, quite honestly, the Zoo can not be THE zoo for Mississippi without it. We consistently rank as one of the most visited attractions in the state, and are the only AZA accredited zoo in Mississippi. Our zoo budget is over two million a year; and admission fees can only cover 65% of these expenses. However, we are committed to keeping our admission prices affordable to make the zoo available to all Mississippians.

Jackson Zoological Society is an IRS-authorized 501(c)3 organization. That means your donation to us is tax-deductible, and when you donate, you'll be helping the Jackson Zoo continue its mission to provide visitors with a quality recreational and educational environment dedicated to wildlife care and conservation.
