Vet Treks Foundation

Vet Treks works to expand veterinary capacity in the developing world. Vet Treks is a 501(c)3 corporation registered in the state of Colorado, USA.

Vet Treks provides mentoring and project assistance to veterinarians and animal welfare organizations in underserved areas of the developing world. We envision a world where all animals receive proper care and the people who depend upon them receive the maximum benefits resulting from adequate animal welfare. We endorse the One Health mantra that animal welfare, public health, environmental health and the economic wellbeing of communities are all interrelated. We believe that the provision of permanent veterinary services in communities can bring improvements in all of these areas; our dream is to facilitate loans to veterinarians in underserved regions, so that they are able to provide sustainable animal health care in those areas. Travel opens minds and creates bonds across cultures and countries. Our crews reap the benefits of knowing they have helped animals and people in areas of need, and also the once in a lifetime benefits of travel in some of the most amazing places on earth.
