Support competent and confident veterinary graduates

Pursuing a doctor of veterinary medicine is a dream many of our students have held since childhood. They mapped out their academic journey, logged many hours of volunteer work and professional experiences and carefully planned for their future. From textbooks to dissection kits, rent and groceries to traveling to externships for hands-on experience, the cost of attendance for our students includes more than just tuition. There are a variety of ways you can help veterinary students advance their training and achieve their professional goals.

Community Cupboard

Fifteen percent of Ohio State students struggle with food insecurity. When you support the CVM Community Cupboard you provide food and other necessities to help offset grocery and supply costs for veterinary students.

Educational Experiences

Learning opportunities outside of the classroom encourage students to explore the veterinary profession, gain experience, and enhance their career to set them up as lifelong learners. Your support helps students take advantage of these valuable opportunities without adding to their debt load.
