AVC Annual Fund
Why is annual giving important for AVC
Annual gifts from alumni, faculty, staff, and friends of AVC provide a vital source of revenue for college operations and the student experience. Annual gifts, which are received and spent in the same year, go to work immediately to support the best of AVC by:
- Attracting more students through expanded programming and increased scholarships.
- Improving student exposure to global education, research and career opportunities.
- Encouraging collaboration, innovation, and partnerships with communities and industries around the world.
- Purchasing much needed equipment for students, staff and faculty that provides research opportunities and serves the community.

Why is alumni giving so important?
Strong alumni participation in annual giving is a valuable measure of AVC pride and satisfaction. It can also be a factor in college rankings and in the amount of financial support the college receives from various foundations. AVC benefits from a great number of alumni and we continue to strive to increase our alumni participation to be the best we can be.
Demonstrate your pride and satisfaction today by giving a gift today and making a meaningful difference in the lives of AVC鈥檚 DVM students.

If you would like to show your support to AVC in a way that allows us to make decisions based on expected funding from our loyal donors, please consider making a multiyear pledge. You may cancel your commitment at any time if your circumstances change.
Matching Gift Companies
Employer matching gift programs enable corporations and their employees to collaborate in their charitable giving. Please ask your employer if they match gifts. Your gift will have double the impact!
Tribute Gifts
You can make your gift to the Annual Fund Campaign in honour or memory of someone. AVC will send a card to the person that you are honouring with your gift. They鈥檒l feel good and so will you! If you are giving in memory of someone, the family will be notified. Be sure to include the person/family鈥檚 contact information when you send your gift. We will also list the person鈥檚 name in the tribute section of our Annual Donor Report.
Planned Gifts
Planned gifts contribute to AVC in a number of important ways, and donors have the option to direct a gift to a specific area of the university or to establish an undesignated gift that will be used for university priorities. Choosing to establish an anonymous legacy is possible, allowing the University to provide funding for new initiatives and the advancement of unexpected opportunities.
Some areas of support may include:
- Scholarships for academic achievement.
