PATRON Membership brings us
Become a Patron Member Today
The patron members of Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium are some of the most important people when it comes to the health, success and future of our Zoo. In fact, the Zoo’s mission wouldn’t happen without you. Patron members make the Zoo a place for everyone.
Why patron membership matters.
Patron membership powers the Zoo’s mission, simple as that. Through the support of our patron members, we are able to continually improve our world-class animal care, advance our conservation research and efforts, and expand our nature-based education programs that instill the love of science and nature in the next generation. The philanthropy of our patron members aids us in making our Zoo inclusive and welcoming to all. And the #1 Zoo for years to come.
Small changes for big benefits.
This year, look forward to exclusive advance previews to special exhibits and events, such as the new Hubbard Orangutan Forest, Ghouls & Glow and Zoolightful.
