The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden and AmeriCorps have partnered together to create the “Cincinnati Zoo Unto Others” program. This program was designed to serve three communities in our region (Human, Wildlife and Ecological Communities) to further our mission and create a world where both people and wildlife thrive. To this end, we have created Service Volunteer positions that bring a variety of fun, impactful, and conservation-based service opportunities that positively impact our local community, youth, zoo visitors, the animals in our care and our local environment.
