3 Ways To Celebrate National Zoo and Aquarium Month
3 Ways To Celebrate National Zoo and Aquarium Month
Zoos and aquariums are often unsung heroes. Once the newness has worn off, we sometimes tend to forget about them. Unfortunately, this nonchalant attitude negatively impacts these places, which depend heavily on the goodwill of patrons and donors. In 1982, President Ronald Reagan designated the entire month of June to honor the efforts of conservationists. Partake in the decades-long history of the month by celebrating in these three ways.
1. Visit Zoos and Aquariums
A quick visit to a local zoo or aquarium is the easiest and most fun way to offer your support in honor of National Zoo and Aquarium Month. Not only will the organization benefit from the cost of your admission, but they will also receive the satisfaction of sharing the fruit of their dedicated work with you.
2. Volunteer Your Time
Our local zoos and aquariums often have open spots for volunteers that they need to fill. These volunteer roles vary, allowing you to find a position suited to your skill set and interests. Volunteering is one of the most fulfilling ways to show your appreciation.
3. Donate Money or Supplies
If your schedule doesn't allow any free time for zoo trips or aquarium volunteering, that's OK! You can still help where it's needed. Consider a one-time contribution to your favorite conservation organization for the month of June. If you prefer a more tangible way to donate, you can contact the organization to find out what food or supplies they need.
