WHAT DO LOCAL VETERINARY SERVICES DO FOR DEVELOPING COMMUNITIES?

Vet Treks Foundation | One Health Philosophy

  • Advance the cause of animal welfare
  • Improve community public health
  • Improve community economics
  • Enable more sustainable environments

Because we care about animals and the people who care about and depend on them, we advocate the One Health philosophy that the causes of animal welfare, environmental wellbeing, and community public health are not separate, but are actually related issues.

Vet Treks provides accredited continuing education to Kenyan veterinarians on spay/neuter technique for dogs and cats, and also on our model for running remote area high volume public spay/neuter campaigns. Following the training lectures and labs, our volunteer teams of experienced vets and techs work alongside the local vets to conduct a community spay/neuter campaign. Concurrently, we vaccinate hundreds of dogs, cats and donkeys against rabies. At the end of each campaign, we donate all of our surgical equipment and supplies to those local veterinarians, thus equipping them with the skills and tools they need to continue this important work.
