AVMF Impact - September 2022

The AVMF has committed a gift of $25,000 to the Kentucky Veterinary Medical Foundation to support those providing emergency veterinary care, food, boarding, and supplies. Please consider joining us in helping those in need. Donations will help provide food, medical care, disaster relief, and emergency support for veterinarians providing care.

A new scholarship program to support students in veterinary technician programs was announced today by the Zoetis Foundation and the American Veterinary Medical Foundation (AVMF). The Zoetis Foundation Veterinary Technician Scholarship program will provide $1,000 scholarships to up to 270 students. This program is funded by a grant from the Zoetis Foundation and will be managed by the AVMF.

Unfortunately, our lives seem to be increasingly touched by disasters. Many have experienced firsthand how these tragedies can impact our lives and the animals that live with us. September is National Preparedness Month, and AVMF is getting ready for the next time we are called to help. Thanks to your generous donations, we’ve been able to support efforts in Ukraine, generating over $615,000 in just 5 months! Simply put, if it wasn’t for faithful supporters like you, we wouldn’t exist.
