Mission Statement
Project V.E.T.S. is dedicated to helping improve the health and welfare of animals around the world. We achieve this goal by collecting veterinary equipment, technology and supplies (V.E.T.S.) from veterinary hospitals, human hospitals, medical equipment/supply manufacturers and individuals and distributing them worldwide to veterinarians working in non-profit or non-governmental organizations devoted to animal health. In this way, we also conserve valuable resources that might otherwise end up in a landfill.
Description
Project V.E.T.S. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to improving the health and welfare of wildlife, companion animals and working animals by collecting veterinary and medical equipment, technology and supplies (V.E.T.S.) from veterinary and human hospitals, manufacturers and individuals. These items are then distributed to veterinarians working in non-profit or non-governmental organizations worldwide who are also devoted to improving animal health and welfare (called "Recipient Organizations"). PV receives donations that are difficult for Recipient Organizations to procure due to lack of funding, inaccessibility and/or challenges with receiving items in their home country.
