Support Brookfield Zoo Digitally

As a non-profit, Brookfield Zoo relies on ticket sales, donations, annual memberships, fundraising events, philanthropic gifts, and support from our community partners. Here are some ways you can help support us and the animals here.

DONATIONS

Consider making a donation that will immediately support our animal care and welfare programs, as well as other critical operations of the Chicago Zoological Society/Brookfield Zoo. Your contribution is so important and will be used in the area of greatest need at the zoo during this uncharted and challenging time.
 

AMAZONSMILE

Link your Amazon account to Brookfield Zoo via the AmazonSmile program. For every eligible purchase you make, Amazon will donate 0.5% to the Chicago Zoological Society. 

NEW for Amazon App shoppers – you can now as Brookfield Zoo as your AmazonSmile charity – just follow these easy steps below:

1. Open the Amazon app on your phone/tablet
2. Select the main menu (=) & tap on "AmazonSmile" within Programs & Features
3. Select "Chicago Zoological Society" as your charity
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to activate AmazonSmile in the mobile app
 

AMAZON WISH LISTS

The CZS Associates young professionals’ group championed a project to find new ways to support CZS.  As a result, various Animal Programs departments here at Brookfield Zoo have created wish lists of items that would be beneficial to help in our care of animals.

Items purchased from our Amazon wish lists can be shipped directly to Brookfield Zoo. And make sure you shop using AmazonSmile and Amazon will donate 0.5% of the price of your eligible purchases to the Brookfield Zoo when you select our charitable organization (Chicago Zoological Society)! 

Due to the specificity of items needed for the care and enrichment of our animals, we are unable to accept items beyond those specifically on the Amazon Wish list. Thank you for your support! For questions regarding your wish list purchases, you can contact us at CZSAssociates@czs.org.
