African Safari Wildlife Park is celebrating World Environment Day by supporting local wildlife conservation efforts, according to a news release.

On June 5, the park will donate $1 to Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge for every vehicle that visits the Park, the release said.

The donation will help support habitat conservation, wildlife protection and educational programs throughout the refuge.

“As a wildlife park, conservation is at the heart of what we do,” said Kelsey Keller, chief operating officer for the African Safari Wildlife Park, in the release. “We’re proud to support Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge and give our guests an opportunity to make a difference simply by visiting the Park.”
