Wildlife Conservation Society (International Wildlife Park (Bronx Zoo ))

The Bronx Zoo and Homes for the Homeless will work together to provide an after-school program entitled, After-School Adventures in Wildlife Science. The life science program will be developed to meet the special educational and emotional needs of homeless students and their families. Children from some 80 homeless families in the South Bronx will receive essential academic knowledge and skills that they need to succeed in school and break the cycle of homelessness. *Awarded under Museum Leadership Initiatives program - now part of National Leadership Grants for Museums
