Help me give my students sleeping bags and pillows to go on an overnight adventure at the Cincinnati Zoo. We were awarded an amazing opportunity to learn and discover, yet we need sleeping bags to participate!
Our students love to learn, however, they often do not have the opportunity for life-long learning lessons, (which is often discovered on experiential field trips) due to the lack of funding necessary to participate. Overnight Adventures provide a hands-on, participatory learning experience that links school standards with exciting animal encounters and exclusive access to the Cincinnati Zoo after-hours. The sleeping bags with pillows will make an overnight encounter visit at the Zoo possible for the majority of our students who would not otherwise be able to participate in this life-long learning opportunity.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
