Valley Zoo Development Society

The Valley Zoo Development Society (VZDS) is a registered charity and friend of the Edmonton Valley Zoo (EVZ). The VZDS is proud to take a lead role in the EVZ’s stunning transformation into a special place that inspires love and learning of the natural world.

Impact of Your Support

Children are fascinated by the natural world, especially by animals. By providing them with a fun setting where they can learn about animals & nature, we can create life-long ambassadors for the long-term health of our planet.

ADOPT AN EXHIBIT

The Valley Zoo Development Society’s Adopt an Exhibit Program inspires the community to improve and enrich the lives of the animals in the Edmonton Valley Zoo’s care. This important program provides vital funding for improved habitats and enrichment materials.

With opportunities ranging from $500 to $10,000, adopting an exhibit is easy and can be done as an individual, as a gift, in memory of a loved one, or as a business. Adopting an exhibit allows you, or your business, to become a catalyst in our community, and encourages all patrons to also become strong stewards for animal welfare and environmental conservation.

Our adoption plans are listed below. Keep scrolling to find the perfect plan for you.
