The Single Day of Service program is intended for organized adult groups, post secondary groups, and organized high school service groups (such as ROTC, Beta Club, Key Club, or similar groups).

If you are a teacher interested in visiting the zoo with a class or participating in a zoo-led educational program, please visit www.nczoo.org/visit/school-trips or www.nczoo.org/education/schools for more information.

Total Estimated Number of Participants
To provide the best experience, projects at the North Carolina Zoo are designed for groups of 15 participants or fewer each day.

While we occasionally have projects that can accommodate larger groups, these opportunities are limited. A Volunteer Services Coordinator will be in touch soon to let you know if any suitable projects are currently available for your group size if you listed a number above 15.
If we are able to accomodate a group over 15, are you willing to split into two smaller groups and work on separate projects at the same time?
