GVMA Foundation Launches PAWS: A New Program for Animal Wellness Support

April 23, 2025

The Georgia Veterinary Medical Foundation’s Providing Animal Wellness Support (PAWS) pilot program provides much needed wellness care, at no cost, to animals belonging to economically disadvantaged community members. 

The Macon area program is in partnership with Meals on Wheels of Middle Georgia, SOS Rescue GA and Hudspeth Animal Hospital. 

Boehringer Ingelheim has generously donated heartworm and flea products in support of the program.

By capitalizing on the strengths of each organization, we are able to provide a service to underserved pet and their families which enhances the quality of life of pet and human alike.
