Meet our donors
“I just love the Zoo. The Detroit Zoo is just a place of wonder. My favorite memory is going behind the scenes at the rhino habitat and having the opportunity to get up close to them. Walking along the pathways at the Zoo you never really get to see the size of them, but when you’re up close to them, you’re amazed by their size and physical structure.”
Marjorie E. Diedrich
“We always enjoyed the Zoo very much. As time went on and we read about all the wonderful, extraordinary and unique conservation efforts and things that were being done at our own home Zoo to save the planet… when we set up our trust, we decided that the Zoo would be one of the places that would receive a legacy from us.”
