Charity Partners Information

The Toronto Zoo opened its gates to animal lovers in 1974. Since then the global extinction rate has soared from one species per year to 1,095 per year. Some of the species housed at the Zoo no longer exist in the wild. As a result, Toronto Zoo now has a host of programs designed to save species from extinction.

The Toronto Zoo Foundation is dedicated to the financial support of the Zoo's efforts to conserve species diversity through conservation, education and research. With events like the Oasis ZooRun 10k & 5k Walk, the Toronto Zoo Foundation funds the following conservation programs:

• Animal Health Centre
• Veterinary Residency Fellowships
• Veterinary Resident Research
• Nutritional Research Program
• Reproductive Physiology Research Program
• Adopt-a-Pond
• Education
• Conservation Program - Memberships with the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and with the support for the Conservation Breeding Specialist Group (CBSG)
