Supporting the Arizona veterinary community in: Student Scholarships, Disaster Relief, Military Support, and Veterinary Well-Being.

How We Support Veterinary Medicine

We believe supporting each pillar: Student Scholarships, Disaster Relief, Military Support, and Veterinary Well-Being is instrumental in providing opportunity & excellence for our community so it can thrive and continue to advance the veterinary profession. 100% of each contribution is applied directly to Foundation causes and is tax-deductible to the extent of the law.

Student Scholarships

The Arizona Veterinary Medical Foundation (AzVMF) recognizes the incredible talent, dedication, and passion that students bring to their journey toward a career in veterinary medicine. These future leaders are essential to advancing the profession, and with the right support, they can overcome the financial challenges that come with it and achieve their dreams.

Disaster Relief

When disaster strikes, veterinarians play a crucial role in emergency response, providing care and support in challenging situations. The AzVMF is committed to equipping the veterinary community with the resources and information they need to assist effectively. By offering guidance on when and how to get involved, we help ensure veterinarians are prepared to respond, support relief efforts, and make a meaningful impact during times of crisis.

Military Support

Military veterans and their animal companions deserve access to proper veterinary care and support. The AzVMF is dedicated to providing resources and guidance to help them navigate available services, ensuring their pets receive the care they need. By offering information and assistance, we aim to honor and support those who have served by strengthening the bond between them and their trusted companions.

Veterinary Well-being

Veterinarians dedicate their lives to caring for others, often putting their own well-being last. The long hours and daily demands can make it hard to find time for self-care. The AzVMF is here to support you, providing resources and guidance to help you find balance and prioritize your health.
