What is the IVC Evidensia Care Fund?

The IVC Evidensia Care Fund is an annual allowance that can be accessed by vet professionals for cases where the prognosis is good and the treatment is available, but where the cost of treatment is beyond the pet owner’s reach. 
 
In 2023, the Care Fund hit record use, supporting over 2,276 animals in need of treatment. It has been particularly empowering for vet professionals to utilise, as they are able to provide a positive outcome to a case.  
Support offered through the Care Fund is vital for giving vet professionals a broad array of options during extremely challenging cases and increasing the likelihood of a positive outcome. 
 
Being able to access additional financial assistance at such an important time can make all the difference, allowing a pet to get much-needed treatment and make a full recovery. 

Care Fund Case Study: Supporting pets affected by Valencia floods

Often, the Care Fund can be used to support pets affected by international disaster. During the Valencia floods, IVC Evidensia mobilised the Care Fund to aid local clinics overwhelmed with cases.

After setting up a dedicated support line, Spanish teams received the Care Fund to deliver essential treatment to sick and injured animals. This immediate funding also helped replace vital pet medications lost from the floods, ensuring essential treatment for all.

Among the animals that were saved was Xena, a Rottweiler with severe pneumonia. Thanks to the Care Fund, teams were able to provide intensive care and bring her back to full health.
