California Rainbow Girls Announce Fresno Chaffee Zoo as Annual Statewide Service Project

FRESNO, CA (MPG) - Did you know that over the past fourteen years California Rainbow Girls have earned and donated over $1,000,000 to their annual Grand Service Projects? This year California Rainbow has chosen the Fresno Chaffee Zoo as their yearly fundraising project. They will be supporting the new Asia exhibit as well as the rest of the zoo through animal enrichment. Since 2006, the Fresno Chaffee Zoo Wildlife Conservation Fund has worked with dozens of individuals and organizations to further research, expand conservation impact, share knowledge, and engage local communities. The zoo promotes the enrichment of animals meaning that the overall well-being of animals is increased as their natural behaviors and environments are promoted by zookeepers. 

 The International Order of the Rainbow for Girls is a nonprofit organization for girls between the ages of 11 and 20. Rainbow focuses on leadership, sisterhood, and service. Our order prepares the girls of today to be the leaders of tomorrow while building self-respect, confidence, poise, patriotism, fidelity, integrity, and character in a fun and safe environment.
