The American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) Foundation, a non-profit organization, supports and advances the work of Board-certified veterinary specialists by funding studies in oncology, cardiology, neurology, large animal internal medicine and small animal internal medicine. These studies address the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases in animals, such as cancer, and may also lead to discoveries that can help humans with similar diseases. In addition, a vital part of our mission is to educate all pet owners that veterinary specialty medicine does exist and that even with a cancer diagnosis, there are treatments that may provide a high quality of life for your pet
for months or even years to come.
Since 2002, the Foundation has funded over 60 studies, including 12 oncology studies through the help of supporters like you. ACVIM Board-certified oncologists around the globe work hard every day to provide our pets with the most up-to-date treatment and preventative measures in order for animals to live longer, healthier lives.
