About Veterinarians Without Borders
Veterinarians Without Borders North America/Vétérinaires Sans Frontières Amerique du Nord (VWB/VSF) is a non-profit, charitable organization that focuses on animal health as a way to improve the health of communities. Put simply, we believe in healthy animals, healthy humans, and a healthy planet.
Globally, we focus on a few key issues, including controlling rabies, promoting gender equality, responding to disasters where animals are present, and training and educating community animal health workers in areas where there are no veterinarians. Throughout our work, we always keep in mind the One Health approach, through which we consider animals, people and the environment before implementing changes. We know that changing one thing, can change everything. Currently, we have programs in 11 countries, including across northern Canada and globally, and work to provide everything from spay/neuter programs to animal health assessments, pet food delivery, vaccinations, training seminars on agricultural and gender equity, and more. We tailor our programs to meet the needs of each community.
This small organization is made up of generous volunteers and dedicated staff. All work is made possible due to the kindness of individuals donors, as well as corporate and government grants.
