Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park is excited to announce,
Sanderson Ford Giraffe Jam Family Fun Run 2024.
Giraffe Jam will be an 'almost a 5k' run/walk through the Zoo and will be Emceed by Fox10’s Troy Hayden.
100% of the proceeds will be donated to Save Giraffes Now, whose mission is to save giraffes from extinction so they can live freely and safely in the woodlands and savannas of their native Africa. 40% of the Giraffe population has declined in the last 3 decades, 50% or more of giraffe infants won't survive to adulthood, 4x as many elephants exist in Africa as giraffes and 3,800,000 square miles of historic giraffe habitat has been lost, an area ~ the size of the US!
Join Wildlife World in helping raise money to stop the silent extinction of the world’s tallest gentle giants. Run/Walk through the zoo before we open to the public for the day, and have fun being surrounded by wildlife while supporting this important cause. All race participants will receive a finisher medal, along with half off admission to the zoo and half off all rides the day of the race. There will also be the opportunity for all zoo guests to meet our giraffes up close like never before!
