📣 UPDATE: Due to an overwhelming number of applications, registration for Operation Backpack: Backpacks 4 You at the Detroit Zoo is now closed.
We’ve opened a waitlist in hopes of serving even more families—if additional resources become available. This program is made possible by generous community support, and your help could mean a backpack (and a bright start to the school year) for a child in need.
