Your Support of the Annual Fund is Vital to the Success
of the SVM
The
annual Advance Veterinary Medicine Fund is the
cornerstone of advancement for the School of Veterinary
Medicine. The School’s long-term strategic plan sets
progressive goals and objectives that will advance
veterinary medicine locally, regionally and
internationally. These high standards can only be met
through private sector donations to enhance our
resources beyond appropriations. The future of the
School is dependent upon the Annual Fund.

Donors who make an annual gift between $100-$499 are

veterinary students today.
