VetStrategy clinics donate $12,000 to non-profits through the Community Grants Program
July 26, 2023
The Community Grants Program offers clinics the opportunity to apply for funding to support local charities of their choice. This past quarter (January – March 2023), VetStrategy and IVC Evidensia provided community grants totalling $12,000 to 8 clinics. They each chose which charities to allocate the donation to. As part of the Positive Pawprint initiative, these grants are a way for clinics to show support to the community and make a meaningful impact on those who need it most.
“Our team was moved by Centre d’Entraide d’Argenteuil’s work. We learned more about the exceptional members’ work and our community’s genuine need. It’s heartwarming to do our part with the understanding that there’s so much need for support to help our community through hard times.” – Mélissa Beaulne, Clinical Director, Hôpital vétérinaire Lachute
