THE WSAVA FOUNDATION

As the umbrella organization for companion animal veterinarians globally, the World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA) established a Foundation in 2011. Since then, our mission has been to improve global companion animal care through science and education.

As a not-for-profit, the WSAVA Foundation funds select scientific, educational, and training projects that will be delivered by clinical and laboratory specialists for the benefit of practicing veterinarians around the globe. By doing so, we hope to achieve our ultimate goal of raising the level of patient care for companion animals worldwide.
