Mission Statement
The Saskatoon Zoo Society is a volunteer-driven, non-profit, environmental education organization, dedicated to fostering respect for nature.
About This Cause
Our History **************************** We were founded as the Saskatoon Regional Zoological Society in 1976 by a group of volunteers seeking to enhance the quality of the animal care and facilities at the zoo and to provide educational programming. What We Do **************************** Today, the Saskatoon Zoo Society runs curriculum-connected environmental education programs for classrooms, public interpretation and outreach, day and summer camps, and other public programming. Our programs are designed to stimulate interest in animals, wildlife, and environmental conservation. In 2021, our small team delivered over 500 programs reaching more than 27,000 people with 100% positive feedback. Our programming has earned industry recognition including CAZA's Eleanore Oakes Award for innovative program design (2021, Small Facility) and an RCE Saskatchewan annual Education for Sustainable Development Award for our Species at Risk programming in 2022. Why Support the Society? **************************** As a separate entity from the Zoo itself, the Saskatoon Zoo Society relies on the generosity of our members, individuals, corporations, foundations and all three levels of government to provide our numerous environmental education programs, to support the quality of care for our animals and enhance the experience for visitors the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo. We are funded through our membership program, grants, donations, cost recovery on our programs, our Adopt-a-Critter program, and the Buckeye Café sales. You can support the Saskatoon Zoo Society by becoming a member, making a donation, or purchasing an "Adopt-A-Critter" today.
