The Sunset Zoo Trust urges you to help us bring the children's Barnyard back to Sunset Zoo by donating to the Trust on Grow Green Match Day,  Wednesday, April 22.

Many of you will rememeber a former exhibit at the zoo which provided children an opportunity to interact with farm animals. The Sunset Zoo Trust plans to bring back this popular feature - bigger and better - as part of our latest ambitious expansion. To be known as the Sunset Barnyard, the attraction will feature a rustic barn and include cows, goats, sheep, miniature pigs, llamas/alpacas, chickens and other domestic animals.

Every dollar you donate to the Sunset Zoo Trust on April 22 will be dedicated to this expansion and your contribution will be matched up to $7,500. Our goal is to raise $30,000 through Grow Green Match Day.

It is easy to donate. See the Grow Green page on the Greater Manhattan Community Foundation website. 

The Sunset Zoo Trust, founded in 1990, is an organization of people passionate about supporting the zoo both financially and with their time. The Trust has led fundraising for numerous zoo projects including the Exhibition Asia expansion in 2022.
