Indy Zoo Council
INDY ZOO COUNCIL
The Indy Zoo Council (IZC) brings together young professionals who are passionate about animal well-being and wildlife conservation. Members support the Indianapolis Zoo’s mission through hands-on animal enrichment initiatives, community engagement, and opportunities to connect with fellow professionals—all while helping grow the next generation of Zoo advocates and supporters.

Make an Impact
Support Animal Enrichment
Animal well-being is at the heart of the Indy Zoo Council. Members support enrichment initiatives through fundraising, ongoing collection of reusable enrichment materials, and hands-on volunteer opportunities to help create enrichment items for Zoo animals. See the list of approved animal enrichment donations here.
Be an Ambassador
Help grow the Zoo’s community of supporters by sharing its mission with your personal and professional networks. IZC members help introduce new audiences to the Zoo, foster connections with potential corporate partners, and inspire greater involvement in its conservation efforts.
Connect with Your Community

Members receive invitations to select donor and sponsor events throughout the year, including new exhibit previews, the holiday donor party, Animals & All That Jazz donor night, and more.
