Newest inductees to the Futures Society of the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden

Since its founding in 1873, the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden has evolved into one of the finest zoos in the world. Six generations of Cincinnatians have ensured the financial stability of this beloved community resource by including the Cincinnati Zoo in their estate plans. Thanks to their generosity and foresight, the Zoo has a world-class research team, an award-winning botanical garden, exceptional educational programs and unique exhibits.

The Futures Society was established in 1985 to recognize and honor those individuals who have established a living legacy through a bequest or other planned gift arrangement. Member benefits include:

  • Lifetime membership in the Futures Society 
  • Annual Recognition Luncheon and Lecture
  • Quarterly Coffee Chats
  • Invitations to Zoo events/openings
  • One-time private tour for up to five people
  • Exclusive framed commemorative gift
