As Alumni of the Mississippi State College of Veterinary Medicine, you understand the importance of philanthropic giving to attract top students and faculty, support new research endeavors and enrich the colleges’ innovative programs that all ultimately affect the health and well-being of animals and humans. We would like to bring your attention to and request your support in the following specific areas.
CARE Fund: The Companion Animals Require Excellence (CARE) Fund was created to address the need for constant improvements in veterinary medical teaching, research, and service. More specifically, this fund supports diagnostic equipment and supplies used provide care at the Animal Health Center; laboratories and expertise needed to train future veterinarians in the latest methods of companion animal treatment; research to combat diseases of companion animals; vital publications for the CVM library; and referral services for veterinarians like yours.
Pegasus Partners Endowment Fund: Contributions to the Pegasus Partners Endowment Fund will build a strong foundation for the enrichment of activities with the College and to become a leader in veterinary medicine. Contributions of $10,000 or more in gifts and pledges will qualify donors as Pegasus Partners. These gifts can be made in five $2,000 annual installments.
Wayne Groce CVM Alumni Society Scholarship Fund: This fund supports junior or senior students who are in good standing, of good moral character, and have demonstrated leadership ability. In 2007, the CVM Alumni Association renamed the scholarship to honor Dr. A. Wayne Groce, who has been a faculty member at the CVM since 1983. He continues to make a lasting impact on many veterinary students and alumni.
