Support for Denver Zoo’s comprehensive educational programs is vital to encouraging children to tap into the power of science. Our Access to Awe Denver Zoo scholarships are designed to remove financial barriers, opening up a world of opportunity to underserved communities in the Denver metro area and beyond. These scholarships offset the cost of science-based educational programs by up to 90%, including programs here on our campus and out in the community.

Support Education
Access, Empathy + Impact for the Next Generation
When people feel a connection to our animals, their history and their habitats, they begin to grasp their role in the bigger picture of our planet. By bringing students of all ages eye-to-eye with our amazing animals, Denver Zoo’s award-winning education programs forge relationships that are critical to the survival of ALL species...including ours.
As Colorado’s oldest and most passionate advocate for wild animals and wild places, Denver Zoo is proud to engage learners of all ages, almost every day of the year. When you support education at Denver Zoo, you play a critical role in fostering the next generation of wildlife advocates—while actively helping us to live our mission of Inspiring Communities to Save Wildlife for Future Generations.
Ambassadors in the Making
The animals under our care here at Denver Zoo serve as invaluable ambassadors for their counterparts in the wild. With your involvement in Denver youth education and Denver Zoo scholarships, our animals can help to convert the next generation of human ambassadors: informed, engaged learners who will one day inspire others to take action on their behalf.
