Donate to VETSOS

VET SOS began offering services to homeless people and their pets in 2001, using a $1000 start-up grant. Since then, all medical supplies and operating expenses are donated. VET SOS would like to expand its services but needs your help in order to do that.

Disaster Preparedness Coalition for Animals (DPCA)

Dear VETSOS Friends and Volunteers,

We are very excited to invite you to participate in the upcoming free training to become a Certified Volunteer Animal Disaster Service Worker.

On July 16, 2010, the California Veterinary Medical Association (CVMA) honored the San Francisco Community Clinic Consortium's VET SOS Project with the Meritorious Service award. This award recognizes organizations that give special attention to or promote the human-animal bond in California. The CVMA is a leading professional organization representing over 6300 California veterinarians.

At the awards ceremony in San Francisco, CVMA staff showed a video of VET SOS footage, and Dr. Ilana Strubel gave an acceptance speech thanking VET SOS's community partners and volunteers, emphasizing the collaborative nature of the project and the connection between human and animal health, and sharing her experiences working with VET SOS.

As she wrapped up her speech with, "VET SOS is truly an example of the best that can happen when California veterinarians and other community members come together to improve animal and human health," Dr. Strubel received a standing ovation from an audience of veterinarians, CVMA and SFCCC staff, VET SOS supporters, and community members.
