This important fundraising event generates critical funds to operate our Wildlife Hospital, which admitted more than 8,400+ animals in 2023.
Join us this year at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium on April 18th at 5:30 p.m. for an evening of engagement with our organization's leaders and native wildlife. The evening will include entertainment, silent and live auctions and a fun VIP photo opportunity. We will share stories of care and concern for Ohio's native wildlife with a focus on how our powerful partnerships contribute to the success of our mission! We will showcase how your support allows Ohio Wildlife Center to offer this vital service to our community.
