The Greater Philadelphia Chapter of the American Association of Zoo Keepers (AAZK) is a non-profit, volunteer organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of animals in captivity and the conservation of their counterparts in the wild. 

Our chapter is based at the Philadelphia Zoo in Philadelphia, PA, and is made up of keepers, docents, volunteers, and other zoo staff.  We also have members from several nearby institutions, including the Elmwood Park Zoo in Norristown, PA.
