Field Conservation Project Support Grants

Our Mission

The Indianapolis Zoo’s mission is to protect nature and inspire people to care for our world. A cornerstone in advancing that mission is the Zoo’s support of conservation activities that protect species (plants, animals and fungi) and ecosystems. The Zoo extends its reach through financial support and collaborative involvement with various organizations, researchers and conservationists. Their dedicated work aims to safeguard unique species and their environments for the benefit of future generations.

Applications for Indianapolis Zoological Society Field Conservation Project Support Grants are by invitation only.
