OUR MISSION
1- ... that no pet owner be forced to choose inadequate treatment or euthanasia for their animal because of inability to pay for emergency medical care.
2- ... that people who receive financial help for a veterinary emergency be given the opportunity to return their gift by becoming mentors, by volunteering for VEFM, or by supporting the VEFM fund financially.
3- ... that it is the responsibility of both the local pet-owning and veterinary communities to make emergency care available--that this is not a national responsibility but a grass-roots responsibility.
4-... that the vision of VEFM will extend to communities all across the United States, possibly even the world.

Our Open House on January 24, 2010, was a great success. The most exciting thing of all is that VEFM got a front page article in the Cape Cod Times. With such important publicity, we are hoping for an influx of donors and helpers, so we can finally start helping our first animals (and people). Here is a link to the on-line version of the article:
