Phoenix Herpetological Society camps, whether day camps or week-long summer camps, are completely different than any other opportunity that for youth.  Our youth volunteer program is an entirely different program than our camps. Please compare the two opportunities to see which one best fits your needs, as they want each and every child to have the most meaningful and fulfilling experience possible.

Classic Holiday Tour

Enjoy a special edition of their “normal” facility tours. Holiday tours are slightly shorter (at approximately 2 hours long), but are still jam packed with fun interactions, demonstrations, behind-the-scenes looks at the sanctuary, and more!

Special Family Holiday Tour

Family Tours are shorter (at approximately 1-1.5 hours long) condensed tours of the highlights of the facility and best enjoyed by families with little ones. Family Tours are designed to be fun as well as highly interactive while still allowing kids to learn and share information. Adult only groups are encouraged to consider Classic Holiday Tours or other specialty tours.

For more information about these and other tours available at PHS, please contact Aaron by email [email protected] or phone 480.513.4377 Ext. 5.

Did you know you can Virtually Adopt an animal at PHS?

Virtual Adoption means that you make a monthly $25 donation or a yearly $250 donation to basically sponsor an animal at PHS. The animal you choose will stay at PHS on display, but your donation will help pay for its daily care, maintenance, and feedings.

With a Virtual Adoption, you DO NOT take the animal home. It stays at PHS; we do all the work, but you get the satisfaction of knowing you are helping to make a difference in the life of that animal.

Virtual Adoptions are great gifts for children who may not be ready for the responsibility of a reptile in their home, for the conservation-minded person in your family at holiday time, for that friend that doesn’t need any more material items, or as an office charity fundraiser.

When you Virtually Adopt an animal for a year, you will even receive a framed photo of your chosen animal.  All Virtual Adoptions will receive signage on their cage showing your support, appreciation, and dedication to that animal.

As always, all donations to the Phoenix Herpetological Society are tax-deductible and you will receive a receipt for this as well.

By virtually adopting an animal at the PHS sanctuary, you help us keep our doors open for unwanted reptiles.

To virtually adopt an animal, you may mail a check (indicating what animal you wish you virtually adopt in the memo section) to our mailing address (PHS, 20701 N. Scottsdale Rd., Suite 107 – PMB 401, Scottsdale, AZ 85255) or you can complete the form online.

To help make a difference for the residents animals at PHS by donating, please mail a check to Phoenix Herpetological Society, 20701 N. Scottsdale Road Suite 107 – PMB 401, Scottsdale, AZ 85255 or visit http://PhoenixHerp.com and find “donate” in the menu under How You Can Help.
