October 25, 2019 – The Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo is requesting candy donations for their 25th annual Boo at the Zoo. The event will be held Thursday, Oct. 31, from 3 until 7:30 p.m.

We encourage you to donate bags of individually wrapped, unopened candy, labeled with your name, department and phone number. By doing this, it provides us the opportunity to express a frightful and delightful appreciation to you at our event. Please do not deliver bags of candy in single-use plastic shopping bags.

When choosing candy, please note that the Palm Oil Shopping Guide has information on purchasing candy from companies that utilize sustainable palm oil in order to help the future of White-handed gibbons and orangutans.

Finally, monetary donations are always welcome. All donations can be sent through campus mail, hand-delivered to our office or we can pick up your donation by calling 352-395-5603. Please make all checks out to Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo.
