UF CVM Project HEAL

UF CVM Project HEAL Project HEAL (Health Extension and Learning) travels to Ecuador annually to provide care to the animals of underprivileged communities.

We are a group of rising sophomore, junior, and senior vet students supervised by faculty Drs. Brian DiGangi and Owen Rae. We share an interest in small and large animal medicine, as well as in traveling and gaining technical skills. We are partnered with the Universidad San Francisco de Quito, a veterinary college in Quito, Ecuador. We establish high-volume, high-quality spay/neuter and vaccinati

on clinics for small animals and administer anti-parasitic treatments to cattle, horses, and small ruminants (goats, sheep, etc.) Please support us by bringing your dogs to our dog washes, telling your friends about us, donating money, or donating supplies. We need all the help we can get! Contact us with any questions or comments you have ([email protected])

Good Evening Project HEAL family, friends, and fur babies!

I hope everyone is staying safe during this storm! To add some positivity to the gloomy weather I am here to announce the next date of our third dog wash of the fall semester which is:

Sunday, October 9th!

- located in front of the Veterinary Academic Building at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine

@ 1945 SW 16th Ave Gainesville, FL 32608 -

There has been an adjustment to the hours of operation of the wash due to the distribution of washes weighing heavily on the morning hours rather than the afternoon. With that being said, the adjusted time frame of the dog wash is:

Start: 9:30 am
End: 1:00 pm

This past weekend was SUCH AN AWESOME TURNOUT!!!! Thank you so much everyone who joined us and donated to our cause. Our volunteers/veterinary students received so much positive feedback from you all and had so many amazing interactions and it really meant a lot.

WE can't wait to see the smiling faces of your fur babies in a couple weeks. As always, we offer full-body baths, nail trims, and ear cleanings in any specific combination you choose!

Thank you so much to everyone who came out and supported us for the first dog wash on the 4th of September! We had one of the most successful washes ever, and we are excited to continue through the year with these amazing vibes.

For those who aren't aware why we do this, 100% of the proceeds from these washes help us provide free veterinary care to rural & low-income families in Ecuador each summer. Last year, due to the amazing contributions we received from the community, we were able to treat over 600 animals, from basic health screenings to surgeries, across multiple different species.

AGAIN, I AM SO EXCITED TO SEE ALL OF YOUR FUR BABIES ON SUNDAY, September 25th. I will be sending out a mass email to those included on our listserv that will include the link to make an appointment!
