Named for the year of our historic founding as America's first zoo, the 1859 Society recognizes those who have thoughtfully provided for the Zoo in their estate plans through either a bequest or planned gift. The Philadelphia Zoo offers many gift opportunities all of which can be tailored to fit your specific financial and estate planning needs.
For additional information about the 1859 Society and how a planned gift can help you and your family, email developmentoffice@phillyzoo.org or call 215-243-5673.
