OVC Pet Trust
OVC Pet Trust is Canada’s first charitable fund dedicated to the health and well-being of companion animals. Established in 1986 at the Ontario Veterinary College (OVC), gifts to OVC Pet Trust support a wide range of initiatives—from clinical care and education to pioneering research. Donations help build state-of-the-art facilities like the Medical and Surgical Learning Centre, support critical upgrades to the ICU, and fund research into diseases like cancer through initiatives such as The Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fund.

A gift to OVC Pet Trust has a powerful and lasting impact. It helps save the lives of beloved pets, supports groundbreaking research that advances veterinary care, and trains the next generation of compassionate, highly skilled veterinary professionals. Your generosity helps provide life-saving treatments, improves access to care for underserved communities, and ensures pets receive the best possible support when they need it most. It also fuels innovative discoveries that improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of pets, enhancing the quality of life for animals everywhere.
When you support OVC Pet Trust, you are not just donating, you are investing in a healthier future for pets, their families, and the veterinary profession. Whether you give in memory of a cherished animal, contribute to a specific program, or include OVC Pet Trust in your legacy plans, your generosity makes a meaningful difference in the lives of animals and the people who love them.
