Vet Med Influencer Fund

The Vet Med Influencer Fund provides general program support for the purchase of equipment at the Hospital.

"If you’d like to do something for us, we ask you do it in a Life Saving Way.” – Gayle and Peter Brock

In 2019, the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine's veterinary hospital saved the life of our beloved dog, Kit (Kitsune) who had a rare condition seldom able to be fixed by other Vet facilities. The experience made us aware of the incredible research and lifesaving work this institution performs in addition to training a greatly needed new generation of veterinarians.

How your donations will be used

Gifts to our Influencer Fund here will support the purchase of much-needed equipment for the UC Davis veterinary hospital's ER/ICU and the Advanced Veterinary Surgery Center. The hospital facility which was built decades ago to handle 5,000 animals a year has served more than 50,000 animals a year the last few years. With the help of our wonderful fans and friends (you!), we can make a difference in enabling the veterinary hospital to help more animals by purchasing items such as crash carts, dog runs, and mobile anesthesia machines.

Now your donations go twice as far! Donations made through June 30, 2025 will be matched. Thanks to a generous $40 million matching gift from a long-time foundation supporter, every donation of $25 or more toward the expansion of UC Davis Veterinary Medicine's clinical facilities will be matched dollar for dollar. Your gift will directly support the equipment and infrastructure needed to treat more patients, advance veterinary care, and train the next generation of veterinarians and specialists. This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of veterinary medicine. Make a difference today – and watch your gift double its impact.

We are often approached to support various organizations and often find the majority of funds go to administration costs and not to the cause. We know first-hand how UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine uses donations to save the lives of our precious animals. Thank you!!
