About us
As a non-profit organization, Lehigh Valley Zoo is a treasured community landmark with a history spanning over a century. Lehigh Valley Zoo, located in the heart of the Trexler Nature Preserve, is home to more than 250 animal ambassadors representing over 128 species. The Zoo’s animal collection is collectively managed through the Species Survival Plan Program™(SSP) which is administered by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). As a means to share important conservation messaging with Zoo guests and contribute to field conservation, the Zoo contributes to, participates in, and initiates wildlife conservation programs at home and in the field. The Zoo’s full-circle conservation projects spotlight Spotted Turtle (local), Mexican Gray Wolf (national) and African Penguin (international). You can learn about the Zoo’s conservation efforts by visiting the Zoo’s Reptile & Amphibian Discover Center, watching a daily African Penguin feeding, and observing a real life wolf feed throughout the year. Accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA), and an institutional member of American Association of Zoo Keepers (AAZK), the Zoo hosts year-round family-friendly events and activities, educational programs, and camps.

At The Neffs National Bank each month a local nonprofit is selected to receive funds raised by employees during their casual dress down days and customers via collection at both the Neffs and Walnutport Branch offices. Funds raised are then matched by The Neffs National Bank. These organizations are selected for providing invaluable support to our local community and surrounding areas as well as holding personal value and connection to The Neffs National Bank employees. This support is raised in addition to The Neffs National Bank annual giving policy. For the month of August the contribution was selected to be made to Lehigh Valley Zoo to support their conservation efforts. 🐾 From left to right: Irene Platania-Emenheiser, Community Development Officer, The Neffs National Bank Amanda Shurr, President & CEO, Lehigh Valley Zoo Kevin Schmidt, CEO, The Neffs National Bank Background: Cosmo & Meeko, Red Pandas #LehighValleyZoo
