Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica recently presented a check for $17,161.12 to the KVMA Foundation for the new Large Animal Teaching Hospital. The donated funds came from a percentage of the company's sales to Kentucky veterinarians, at no additional cost to the veterinarians.

KVMA seeks to raise $500,000

The Kentucky Veterinary Medical Association has set a goal to generate $500,000 for the new Large Animal Teaching Hospital. Contributions are being requested through the KVMA Foundation, which is seeking support from Kentucky veterinarians, the equine industry, and allied industries.

Auburn University serves as the official veterinary college for Kentucky through an agreement established by the Southern Regional Education Board in 1946, the oldest such cooperative arrangement in the United States.

For more information on the KVMA donation program, contact Dr. Roger Murphy, President of the KVMA, at (859) 269-9669.
