UCVM VetBall 2025 Gala and Fundraiser

Welcome to VetBall: The University of Calgary Faculty of Veterinary Medicine’s (UCVM) Year-End Gala and Fundraiser!

Dear UCVM Community, Friends and Supporters,

We are excited to bring to you a special event that promises to be a night of celebration and impact. The students of the University of Calgary Faculty of Veterinary Medicine are coming together to host our annual year-end gala, and we're counting on your support to make it an unforgettable success!

Our Gala aims to bring together UCVM students, faculty, and staff to celebrate our achievements over the past academic year and raise funds for charity. This year, we have chosen to donate to our very own UCVM-CUPS Fund.

The UCVM-CUPS Fund:

he UCVM-CUPS Fund is a student organized monetary fund aimed to directly support the annual UCVM-CUPS Pet Health Clinic. The University of Calgary Faculty of Veterinary Medicine (UCVM) and the Calgary Urban Project Society (CUPS) partner to host free Pet Health Clinics, where UCVM students provide basic veterinary care to marginalized Calgarians. The UCVM-CUPS Fund was created by students to bridge the gap with patients who require care beyond what the basics of the clinic offers. Students and faculty have access to the UCVM-CUPS Fund during the clinics to provide additional medical care to special cases. This is an invaluable educational experiences for UCVM students, where they have a means to provide additional diagnostics and treatment workups otherwise not financially feasible.

Why We Need Your Help

VetBall is entirely student lead, meaning we rely fully on external financial support to make this event a success. We believe that by supporting our gala, you are not only helping us celebrate our achievements but also contributing to the betterment of veterinary medicine.
