How You Can Help

Gifts to the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine help support our mission in teaching, research and patient care. Donations directed to the Dr. Ava Frick Pet Rehab and Pain Management Fund strengthen the work of our Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation team as we care for the working and service dogs who protect, guide and support our communities.

These gifts provide critical resources for local law enforcement K-9 units, search-and-rescue dogs and service dog organizations. Support helps us purchase supplies, deliver specialized training and expand first-aid and fitness instruction that promotes injury prevention and long-term performance for these remarkable canine athletes.

Your generosity empowers our team to advance canine conditioning, rehabilitation and pain management while ensuring these dogs receive the care and preparation, they need to stay healthy in their demanding roles.

To make a gift with a credit card, call 573-882-0548 or visit our online giving site.
