Leave a Legacy

Make your love of animals become a lasting part of your life story.

Supporting the Texas Veterinary Medical Foundation (TVMF) through planned giving reflects your commitment to the veterinary profession and dedication to improving the wellbeing of animals in Texas.

Planning a gift is a way to ensure your values endure and transcend the bounds of time. Your legacy will be honored and remembered forever in the differences your gift will make.

My lawyer advised me to include a charity I cared for in my plans. I wanted to support Texans and my veterinary community.

Wills & Living Trusts

Leaving TVMF in your will or revocable trust allows you to plan a gift without disrupting your current lifestyle or commitments. This avenue is ideal for large contributions and ensuring future support for TVMF. We will honor you and your bequest as an elite member of the Legacy Society.

Retirement Plans

Including TVMF in your retirement plan is the easiest way to plan a gift. All you need to do is add TVMF as a beneficiary through your retirement plan manager. If you are married, a spousal waiver form may be needed. You may designate all or a portion of your remaining funds.

Other Ways to Plan a Gift

TVMF will work with you and your associates to maximize your impact on Texas animals and veterinary medicine. Other avenues for planned giving include:

  • Donor Advised Funds
  • Life Insurance Policies
  • Certificates of Deposit
  • Bank or Brokerage Accounts
