Topeka Zoo & Conservation Receives Substantial Lead Gift for Future Masterplan Project
The Topeka Zoo & Conservation Center is thrilled to announce a transformative gift from the Lumpkin Family Trust, dedicated to the Grayson Goodwin Lumpkin Barn, which will significantly support the zoo’s next masterplan project. This generous contribution will enable the zoo to introduce new animals, create joyous play areas, and offer innovative learning opportunities focused on conservation and environmental stewardship.
The upcoming project is designed to cater to visitors of all ages, especially those young at heart, transforming the heart of the zoo. Through interactive play, engaging educational experiences, and immersive exploration, the Topeka Zoo will become a dynamic platform for children and families to deepen their appreciation for the natural world and the importance of conservation.
“We are deeply grateful to the Lumpkin Family Trust for their generous lead gift,” said Jannett Wiens, Major Gifts Officer. “Their support inspires others to make a meaningful impact. As the Topeka Zoo continues to evolve, the impact of this contribution will be felt for generations to come. We cannot wait to share the inspiration, vision, and dream that this project embodies!”
The Topeka Zoo looks forward to unveiling more details about this exciting masterplan project in the coming months. Stay tuned for updates and join us in celebrating this remarkable step towards a vibrant and sustainable future.
