NZ VETERINARY TRUST

Veterinary teams dedicate their lives to caring for our beloved animals. But who takes care of them?

Run by the New Zealand Veterinary Association Te Pae Kīrehe (NZVA), Vet Support is to prevent burnout, promote wellbeing, and protect the heart of animal care: our people.

Rooted in three powerful pillars — Prevent, Promote, and Protect — Vet Support delivers evidence-based mental health and wellbeing support to veterinary professionals and workplaces

With your donation, Vet Support can:

✅provide free counselling to veterinarians in Aotearoa

✅expand access to confidential mental health services

✅deliver mental health and wellbeing training to veterinary teams across Aotearoa

✅fund mentoring and wellbeing programmes

✅advocate for systemic change within the veterinary industry

✅provide free resources for anyone in the profession who needs them

Every dollar you give goes directly to initiatives that support veterinarians and veterinary professionals — so they can continue to do what they do best, without compromising their own wellbeing.

Whether you care about animals, veterinarians or mental health, you can be a vital part of this movement.

Let’s create a future where every veterinary professional in New Zealand feels seen, supported, and valued.
