Charities and complimentary tickets

Every year our three Zoos receive thousands of requests seeking donations to raffles, fundraisers and other events. Unfortunately, due to the large volume of requests and Government and Zoo policy, we are not always able to provide support.

Zoos Victoria is itself a government-funded, not-for-profit organisation, and we also rely on sponsorship and donations to assist us in our projects and conservation programs.  If you would like to become a fundraiser for Zoos Victoria to help raise much needed funds for wildlife conservation please visit the foundation pages - or contact the Zoos Victoria Foundation on 03 9285 9300

Accordingly, we applaud the efforts of fundraising community members and wish you all the best in your endeavours, but are most often unable to participate.

Zoos Victoria focuses on some key events annually, including:

  • Community day with Mission Australia
  • Working with the Starlight Foundation, Make-a-Wish and similar organisations to provide special experiences for sick children.
