When you sponsor an animal at Hemker Zoo, you gain a deeper connection with the animals that you love. A sponsorship helps you to realize, respect, and protect the animal world and our environment.
Through our Sponsor an Animal program, individuals, families, school groups and civic organizations are invited to adopt an animal and become a partner in providing the best posible care at Hemker Park & Zoo. Besides the satisfaction of helping your selected animal, each sponsorship type comes with its own unique benefits.
To find out more about sponsoring an animal, call us at (320) 836-02426 or send us an email.
Also, don’t forget to find out if your workplace has a donation matching program. Every little bit helps your animal friends at the zoo.
