Causes: Animals, Veterinary Services
Mission: Most foundations give money, the VIN Foundation gives resources. The VIN Foundation believes a healthy animal community depends on a healthy veterinary community. These resources help veterinarians thrive so they can help our animals and those who care for them. Each of the resources are available to all veterinarians and veterinary students at no cost. Each of these resources are being regularly updated with the most up to date information. Veterinary medicine encompasses inspection of animal food and meat, academia and research, international health and public awareness, as well as cutting-edge surgery, diagnostic testing, and medical treatments for every animal species. The strength and health of our pets, agriculture, research, families, and communities depends upon a healthy, vibrant, and strong veterinary profession.

The VIN Foundation programs help the veterinary community thrive so veterinarians are able to protect animal and human health and welfare.
