Volunteering for Jazzoo is a wonderful way to show your support for the Kansas City Zoo & Aquarium. Consider joining us this year!
We welcome anyone who has some time to give and wants to help the Zoo’s largest fundraiser. Give a few hours, a half-day, a full day, or whatever you can spare.
We do our best to accommodate special needs for volunteers — just let us know in the notes section when you sign up.
We’re always happy to have younger volunteers assist us during the daytime shifts. We just ask that they be with an adult the entire time they are volunteering.
Complete the sign-up form below and a Jazzoo volunteer will get in touch with you. If you have any questions, contact us at [email protected]
EVENT DAY SETUP
Thursday, June 6
Friday, June 7
Volunteers are needed both days. This predominantly outside role involves a variety of items related to set-up. This is the most critical need for volunteers, as they are one of the main reasons we are able to make this event a success each year. This is a great way to experience and appreciate the Zoo – and sneak a peek at some of the animals! Event set-up may include setting up decor, signage, preparing guest areas, restaurant load-in and many other items. If you are able to volunteer a few hours, a 1/2 day or both days we would love to have your help. You will be provided lunch and the work is done rain or shine. It is suggested to wear sunscreen, tennis shoes and a hat.
EVENT CLEANUP
Saturday, June 9
One of the most important roles is helping to get organized for 2025 Jazzoo – and it begins with the Saturday morning volunteers. You will spend time at the Zoo before the doors open to the Saturday guests packing up and organizing supplies from this year's event. This position will be both inside and outside - so dress accordingly!
We always do our best to accommodate any special needs for volunteers, just let us know in the comment section of the Volunteer Interest Form. We are always happy to have younger volunteers assist us during the daytime shifts, we only ask that they be with an adult the entire time while volunteering.
