Have you heard the news?

The Phoenix Zoo is undertaking an aggressive and innovative plan to build a World Class Zoo for a World Class City.  At the forefront of this effort is the construction of a new Bornean Orangutan Experience that benefits our wonderful family of Orangs that call the Phoenix Zoo home.  Constructing the entire Orangutan Experience for Duchess and her family will require a total of $5 million, and we currently have raised a little more than $1 million.

We need YOUR help to make this happen.  Your tax-deductible donation will go directly toward our efforts to create a new Orangutan Experience for Duchess, Bess, Kasih and Michael as we begin to build a World Class Zoo for a World Class City.

If you are interested in becoming directly involved in our efforts and on behalf of the campaign to build a World Class Zoo for a World Class City, please feel free to call our Development Department at 602.914.4322. They can answer questions or take donations over the phone. You can also Click Here to donate online. We will need the full support of the community, and we thank you for your generous assistance.

Sincerely,

Norberto J. (Bert) Castro
