The North Alabama Zoological Society Membership program is a special community created for those that have an earnest interest in seeing a zoo and aquarium in North Alabama happen quickly.
The proceeds from your membership goes to help further our missions in education, conservation, and most definitely creating a zoo and aquarium.

Rules and Eligibility

Unless otherwise stipulated, membership in North Alabama Zoological Society Membership Program is not associated with any other giving and/or contribution program.
- Contributions made towards membership in the NALZS Palz Program are considered charitable donations. North Alabama Zoological Society is a 501(c)(3) organization.

A knowledgeable tax attorney or accountant should be able to further advise you regarding the deductibility of fees, dues, or contributions, particularly for the donor’s own tax reporting requirements.
- Contributions may be given all at once, on a quarterly basis, or on a monthly basis. Gift and benefit levels are based on the contributions given within a one-calendar-year period from the date of the first contribution of that calendar year.
