We are so thankful to all of our outstanding, dedicated, and invaluable volunteers. Last year, 673 volunteers gave a whopping 61,300 hours of their time to the Zoo! This includes interacting with 377,000 guests, touring 3,000 students, leading 124 virtual field trips, and going on 85 Special Needs Outreach trips. Volunteers support the Zoo and GLAZA's mission of saving wildlife, enriching our communities, and creating connections to nature through community engagement and staff support behind the scenes in nearly every department at the Zoo. Next time you see a volunteer, please take a moment to thank them!
