DONATIONS AND BEQUESTS

 

You can Make a Difference

The South African Veterinary Foundation exists to benefit the health and welfare of animals.  It relies on donations to fund research projects and provide books and bursaries for veterinary education of students in South Africa. 

Our organisation is managed and supported by vets, a number of which have donated to our funds – see a list below.

All donations will be given a South African Revenue Service (SARS) Section 18A receipt on request in order to receive the tax benefit of the donation.
