As the charitable arm of the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), AVMF is committed to high standards of stewardship. Although AVMF’s tax filings list staff salaries, these are fully funded by the AVMA—not donor dollars. This ensures that more of your gift directly supports veterinary charitable care, education, research, and disaster response.

We’re proud to have earned Charity Navigator’s highest rating—four stars—for our commitment to accountability, transparency, and financial health.
