Commemorative Gifts

Thank you for considering the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium as a recipient of a memorial or tribute gift in the name of your loved one. Commemorative gifts are a touching tribute to your family member, friend, or colleague and her/his connection to wildlife and wild places. Your commemorative gift will serve as a living tribute to your loved one, as it helps us to create and maintain the living legacy of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.

When a memorial donation is made, the Zoo will send a handsome acknowledgment card on your behalf to the loved one or her/his family. The family will be notified of each gift made (without specifying the amount).

Checks can be made out to Columbus Zoo and Aquarium; please note in the memo section who the gift commemorates. You can also make a memorial or tribute gift on-line by clicking on the button below. For additional information please contact Mayme Norman at mayme.norman@columbuszoo.org or call 614-724-3686.
