Equine Fund

Equestrians are special people. They understand the value of a horse-the bond between horse and handler and the economic realities of the equine industry.

Horse owners recognize that quality equine health care is essential to success and that there is a need for advancing knowledge in equine medicine.

The School of Veterinary Medicine recognizes what every good veterinarian has always known, people love their horses.

The Equine Research Fund provides support for health care studies dealing with the diseases and disorders that afflict horses, and provides support for other needs within the veterinary medical education program such as scholarships and special equipment.

The University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Veterinary Medicine is an exceptional health care resource for horses. It brings knowledge and experience from many different disciplines and specialties to bear on the task of understanding and improving the health of your horse.

Private donations to the Equine Research Fund help the School to achieve these goals. Donated funds will increase the resources available to the School of Veterinary Medicine in its search for solutions.

Your participation can make an important difference on whether or not these vital efforts succeed.

The Equine Fund is an excellent and unique way of

• Expressing sympathy over the loss of the companionship of a horse or dear friend
• Expressing appreciation for the medical or surgical care your veterinarian provided
• Giving a gift of love to an owner who loves and values animals
• Showing appreciation for the love and comfort that animals provide us
• Celebrating a horse's, owner's, or friend's birthday
