VWB/VSF in Northern Canada 

You have the power to make a profound difference in the lives of dogs, cats, and more across communities in Canada's far North. With the generous support of people like you, Veterinarians Without Borders North America (VWB/VSF) has made incredible strides in providing essential veterinary care to communities across Nunavut and the Northwest Territories.

In 2023, our dedicated veterinary team hosted 12 clinics, reaching dogs and their owners in remote areas. 

Your continued support holds the key to ensuring that animals in Canada's remote North receive the vital veterinary care they deserve.

Your incredible contribution, whether a one-time gift or a commitment as a monthly donor, can make a lasting impact. It will go beyond treatments – bringing comfort, health, and a brighter future for our four-legged friends in these remote communities.

*In the EXTRAORDINARY event that the amount raised exceeds the need in this area, your gift will go to the next highest priority.
