Fundraise for us

Make a difference: Choose us as your Charity of the Year!

This is a very special year, because with your help, we are raising the vital funds needed to build African Forest, the new home for our gorilla troop. African Forest is the first area to be built as part of the new conservation zoo development at Bristol Zoo Project.

Everyone can play a part in creating African Forest. There are so many ways to get involved, from bake sales to themed dress-up days (go wild!), animal-themed quiz nights or even a grand ball.

Whether you’re looking for some inspiration or already know what you’re going to do – we’re here to support you. Fundraisers come in all shapes and sizes, from Charity of the Year partnerships to fun events like quiz nights, bake sales or organised mass events like marathons, right up to the dizzying heights of sky dives! The sky is literally the limit.

You can take on a fundraiser on your own or do it with friends and family, or with school or work mates! Whatever you decide – we are here to help, so get in touch with our team today and let us know what you’re planning (or whether you’d like some inspiration!).
