Designating a gift to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is a meaningful way to honor a special occasion or the memory of a friend or family member.
Celebrate a special person, memory, or milestone with a commemorative bench at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.
With your gift of $5000, a personalized plaque will be placed on a sustainable bench in a meaningful location of your choice—creating a peaceful spot for guests to rest, reflect, and connect with nature for at least 10 years. Bench installation takes approximately 2–3 months from the time of order.
Thank you for considering the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium as a recipient of a gift in the name of a friend or loved one.
Commemorative gifts are a touching tribute to your family member, friend, or colleague and her/his connection to wildlife and wild places. Your gift will serve as a tribute while helping us to create and maintain the living legacy of the Columbus Zoo.
When a commemorative gift is made, the Zoo will send an acknowledgment on your behalf to the honoree or her/his family. The family will be notified of each gift made (without specifying the amount).
Checks can be made payable to Columbus Zoo; please note the honoree in the memo section.
