Be a part of the laughter, awe and wonder among the thousands of children and adults who enjoy the Utica Zoo.  "Companies For Kids," the Utica Zoo's Business Membership Program supports the Zoo's educational programs that entertain and educate children and adults about wildlife, science and conservation of the Earth's most natural resources. 

Private support from the business community is vital to ensure the Zoo's continued success.  Participation in our "Companies For Kids" program provides perfect opportunities for businesses of all sizes to become involved in the Utica Zoo. Levels of support begin at $100.

Since becoming chartered by the New York State Department of Education in 1965, the Utica Zoo continues its mission to educate and entertain about everything natural, from fur to fins and whiskers to wings.  Our popular educational programming includes live animal presentations, "Zoo Edventure" preschool classes, home school classes, summer zoo camps, birthday parties and special events.  Educational volunteer opportunities are available through our Docent and Junior Docent programs.  School-to-work and internship programs support and enhance the training of the animal care professionals of tomorrow.

As a Business Partner your company receives a host of benefits.  Included at every level are free zoo passes, which may be used for your employees or clients.  Business partners of the "Companies For Kids" program annually help more than 18,000 children participate in the Zoo's educational programming. With your help, laughter and learning will continue to go hand in hand at the Utica Zoo.  Join now.  It's easy and beneficial.  Visa and MasterCard accepted.  Call 738-0472.
