BSAVA PetSavers secures match funding this Christmas

2 December 2024

BSAVA PetSavers is taking part in the Big Give’s Christmas Challenge, with the aim of raising £10,000* from 3^rd – 10^th December. All donations made to BSAVA PetSavers during the Christmas Challenge week will be generously match funded by The Reed Foundation and the Small Animal Medicine Society (SAMSoc).

Over the past 50 years, BSAVA PetSavers have invested around £2.7 million in vital clinical research and training programmes, in areas as diverse as cancer, heart disease, neurological disorders, bone and joint disease, immunological conditions, gastrointestinal disorders and skin disease.

All money raised from this campaign will be used to award grants to researchers in universities and veterinary practices, enabling veterinary surgeons, nurses and academics to undertake vital research into the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases in pets.

Julian Hoad, BSAVA President said: “The Big Give Christmas Challenge offers donors a fantastic opportunity to see one donation make twice the impact, thanks to our match funders. If you can, please do consider supporting this campaign to fund more research into small animal health.”

Allie Selby, Fundraising Manager for BSAVA PetSavers continued: “We are thrilled with this opportunity to raise vital funds for BSAVA PetSavers. A huge thank you to The Reed Foundation and SAMSoc for their support, without them this would not be possible.”
