A look back at Zootopia 2022

Together, we raised over $700,000 to protect and sustain the natural world for future generations. The event lived up to its theme - Climbing to New Heights - in many ways:

Phenomenal fundraising for Zoo New England's programs - we raised a record-setting $706,660 and counting!
The Wild Things, Zoo New England's emerging leaders group, stepped up to offer their first challenge gift for our Fund-A-Need Auction, which was matched and raised $8,500 critical dollars for animal care, education, and conservation initiatives.
Nearly 350 guests rocked their best animal-inspired attire for the gala's return to Franklin Park Zoo after 15 years.
We honored the impressive "Kid Conservationist" Jack Dalton with this year's Young Conservationist Award for his efforts to save orangutans.
