Sequoia Park Zoo Foundation
The Sequoia Park Zoo Foundation is the fundraising/support arm for Sequoia Park Zoo; the zoo's official website (redwoodzoo.org, also mirrored at sequoiaparkzoo.net) hosts donation, events, and involvement information for the Foundation and Zoo. The site lists current news and upcoming events and provides contact details for the zoo in Eureka, CA.

Ideal Applicant
A local or regional conservation or municipal partner working on Sequoia Park Zoo improvement, zoo-related capital projects, or conservation studies with ties to Humboldt County and the zoo.
Good Fit
- • Project explicitly tied to Sequoia Park Zoo improvement or operations.
- • Municipal or fiscal sponsorship relationship (e.g., City of Eureka or Humboldt Area Foundation).
- • Conservation research or program with clear zoo relevance.
- • Located in California, preferably Humboldt County or nearby.
- • Capacity to receive larger, project-specific grants rather than small general operating requests.
Geography
All observed grants across the filing years were made to recipients in California, with 100% of giving concentrated in-state and a clear Humboldt County / Eureka focus.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows three distinct recipients (including the City of Eureka and Humboldt Area Foundation) and two new grantees that year; for a small local funder this represents a moderate spread rather than an extremely narrow recipient set.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of long-term turnover is limited but two new recipients appeared in 2024 and the funder has no public application guidelines; this suggests some openness to new entrants but no formal public application path.
