The Racine Zoo's Volunteer Program is for adults ages 18 and older. This is perfect for those who are considering a future career with animals, zoos, education, or for those just looking for a fun volunteer opportunity to do in their spare time! Volunteering at the Racine Zoo is a fun, rewarding experience for volunteers of all ages, from young adults to retirees!
Where else can you surround yourself with some of the world's most spectacular creatures while working and interacting with individuals who are dedicated to the mission and values of the Racine Zoo? Those that partake in the Racine Zoo's volunteer program have opened the pathway to gaining valuable work experience that will help them in their future endeavors and careers.
We rely on the assistance, dedication, and enthusiasm of those who share our vision of continuing to make the Racine Zoo a sanctuary for positive interaction between people and the natural world. All positions require that the volunteer communicates effectively and pleasantly with the public, as well as represent the Zoo in a positive manner.
New Volunteers are accepted in the Spring and Fall of each year, and applications are due annually on April 1st and October 1st.
