A Season of Giving
As the winter holidays once again approach, gratitude and generosity take center stage. This holiday season, we invite you to join us in spreading joy, hope, and compassion for wildlife. It is because of friends like you that that the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium continues to maintain the best possible standards of animal care, conservation, and education, as well as positively impact and inspire our community.
We invite you to join us in spreading joy, hope, and compassion for wildlife. We have many opportunities for holiday gifts and giving – including Black Friday Weekend discounts on annual Zoo Memberships! No contribution is too small, and every act of kindness has the power to make a difference for animals, both in our backyards and around the world. Below are available options.

Your generosity can make a life-changing difference for children by supporting our Campership Scholarship Fund. Each scholarship covers Zoo Camp tuition, a camp t-shirt, extended care before and after camp, daily lunch, and transportation costs—removing barriers so that every child can experience the wonder of camp. More than just fun, Zoo Camp connects children with wildlife, builds friendships, and inspires the next generation of conservationists.
As we give thanks for our incredible animals, staff, Members, and guests, we remind you that the Zoo will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 27. We offer our best wishes for a wonderful and wild holiday season!
