Dear Zoo Supporters,

Fiscal Year 2019 was a year of unprecedented progress and growth marked by immersive new experiences, vital conservation work and impactful educational opportunities all designed to further advance our mission of saving animals from extinction.

We continued to make great strides in achieving the three main objectives mapped out in our Strategic Plan – become nationally and internationally known for our science and conservation work, transform zoo visitors into conservationists, and become the premier zoos in New England. This comprehensive plan is designed to advance our mission delivery and conservation impact, as well as expand our capacity to create fun and engaging experiences focused on the natural world.

We attained new heights in attendance, membership and fundraising. In FY 19, we welcomed a record- setting 708,278 visitors, and membership increased to more than 19,000 member households. Total fundraising increased from $4,076,388 in FY 18 to $4,539,261 in FY 19.

Zoo New England is committed to community participation and access to ensure that all members of our community can experience the wonders of wildlife. We’ve made the Zoos ever more welcoming and inclusive to all people though sensory-inclusive programming and equipment, as well as expanded programs that encourage access for all, regardless of financial resources.

On the conservation front, we continue to have a great impact in vital conservation work happening right here in eastern . In the spring, we began a three-year partnership with the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife to study and monitor populations of wood turtles. We are continuing to engage thousands of schoolchildren in hands-on conservation work through our successful Hatchling and Turtle Conservation Headstarting Program (HATCH) and were pleased to expand this programming into the Boston Public School and Perkins School for the Blind. On a global scale, we have developed several long- term conservation partnerships to save species ranging from snow leopards to gorillas to Baird’s tapirs.

With our commitment to educating the next generation of conservation stewards, we were especially thrilled to welcome 59,924 Massachusetts schoolchildren who visited as part of school field trips free of charge.

All of this work is a collective effort, and we are fortunate to have highly-skilled professional staff, a strong core of devoted volunteers, a talented Advisory Council, and a dedicated Board of Directors to ensure that we are able to deliver on our mission, now and in the future. We are grateful to the loyal and generous Zoo members, donors, and volunteers who help us provide experiences that will be remembered long after our visitors leave our Zoos.

With your continued support, we will realize our vision for these beloved Zoos, inspire caring and action in all of our guests, and ensure a healthy, thriving planet for generations to come.

Sincerely,

John Linehan President & CEO

Our expansive science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) focused educational programs, which incorporate Massachusetts and federal curriculum frameworks, supplement and build interest in formal science education and enable our guests to explore the complex connection between natural, thriving habitats and wildlife.

To ensure access to schoolchildren, the Zoos offer free admission to all Massachusetts students throughout the school year who visit as part of scheduled school field trips. By providing opportunities to children who may not otherwise be able to visit, we’re able to introduce them to wildlife and bring fun and effective educational programming to all members of our community. We were thrilled to welcome 59,924 schoolchildren in FY 19 who visited Franklin Park Zoo and Stone Zoo as part of school field trips free of charge.

On the science and research front, we have exciting partnerships with Harvard Medical School and the Broad Institute. Our One Health Clinical Elective, a unique collaboration with Harvard Medical School, has continued to garner national media attention and was featured on NBC Nightly News and CBS This Morning. The goal of the experience is to help medical students appreciate the concept of One Health – the intersection of human health, animal health, and ecosystem health. We want them to understand that humans exist in an ecosystem shared by many other beings and the health of all is interdependent on each other. The One Health concept is not one that is typically taught in medical schools today and exposing students to the broader picture of ecosystem health and the role of biodiversity in protecting human health has an immediate impact on their perception of health in a broader context.

The students become experts on identifying local plant and animal wildlife in their community and make significant contributions to various biodiversity and citizen science projects.

The BBIG program is just one example of programming designed to engage youth in impactful activities focused on conservation and the environment. When young people actively participate in hands-on conservation activities, it can change their perspective as well as their understanding of nature and the positive impact we can all have.

Since its inception in 1999, the incredibly popular ZooTeen program, which attracts a diverse group of participants, has engaged Boston youth with authentic work experiences that allow young people to develop professionally, build a strong sense of self, and strengthen their knowledge and preparedness for future endeavors. In FY 19, 39 ZooTeens worked in a wide-range of departments at Franklin Park Zoo, which included Animal Care, Education, ZooCamp, Commissary, Facilities, and Guest Services. The program provides teens with the opportunity to receive direct exposure to zoo and conservation-oriented careers in a fun, structured and professional learning environment. Professional development classes and service projects are incorporated into the program’s design.

Upon completion of the ZooTeen Program, select teens who wish to further their work can apply to become a Teen Ambassador. During the school year, the Teen Ambassadors participated in community events, created conservation and zoology themed activities, and went into the field with ZNE’s Grassroots Wildlife Conservation staff to learn about turtle conservation efforts.
