The MVMA Charities (MVMAC) has two key programs to help protect and serve the pet communities of Massachusetts.

We provide assistance to a variety of animal welfare programs throughout Massachusetts as the charitable branch of the

"Protecting the lives and enhancing the futures of animals across Massachusetts." STRAY ANIMAL PROGRAM:
Provides financial assistance for emergency veterinary care of unowned animals so they can be rehabilitated and re-homed. Funds are made available to every city and town in Massachusetts. EMERGENCY AND DISASTER PREPAREDNESS PROGRAMS:
Provide materials and education for first responders so that they can effectively address animal-related emergencies. This includes distributing pet oxygen mask kits to fire stations and training fire fighters and EMS in basic animal first aid across Massachusetts. We've also provided funding for the State of Massachusetts Animal Response Team (SMART), Pawsitive Pantry to assist with pet food distribution to food pantries, and Mass Vest-A-Dog to purchase equipment for police K9 officers.
