Proceeds to benefit

Proceeds from Wildlights for Wildlife support the non-profit Phoenix Zoo in providing for the over 3,000 animals in our care and in furthering our mission to advance the stewardship and conservation of animals and their habitats while providing experiences that inspire people and motivate them to care for the natural world.
