THE ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY SUPPORTS the Milwaukee County Zoo through cash and in-kind
services. Half of all revenue raised by the Zoo Pass membership program goes to the Zoo in unrestricted funds to support the day-to-day operations of the Zoo. The Society provides additional funds through its procurement of sponsorships for Zoo attractions and events. The Society also provides graphic design, information technology and direct project support and operates Zoo Pride, a volunteer program that serves the Society and Zoo. The Zoo closed for several months in 2020 at the start of the pandemic. OUR GUEST SERVICES STAFF WAS INVALUABLE during this time and afterward, answering questions for members about their passes, the Zoo’s opening status and new procedures once the Zoo reopened. Zoo Passes were extended for four months to make up for the time the Zoo was closed.
