YEAR-END TAX PLANNING IDEA
The SCVMA Board of Trustees formed
the SCVMA Scholarship and Education
Fund, a 501 (3)(c) nonprofit, " to provide
continuing education programs for the
veterinary profession in Los Angeles and
Orange counties as well as to provide
scholarships for individuals to attend
veterinary medical colleges or registered
veterinary technician schools. "
Contributions are fully tax deductible for
those wanting to support the SCVMA
membership and the mission of this
PULSE
DECEMBER 2024
fund. SCVMA members looking to leave
a legacy from an estate-planning standpoint
can also designate the SCVMA
Scholarship and Education Fund in their
wills or other programs.
The foundation board has created guidelines
and an application for the funding
of local candidates enrolled in veterinary
schools or technician schools.
As we learn more and more, we will
share ideas about how you, your family,
your clients and others can help current
and future veterinarians and RVTs of Los
Angeles and Orange counties.
We are excited about this program
and encourage you to think about the
SCVMA Educational and Scholarship
Fund when you consider organizations
you wish to support. The tax ID number
is 47-5548078.

The evening is a celebration of the SCVMA as we recognize those who have
contributed and continue to contribute to the success of the profession
through awards. Additionally, we honor the chapter officers who volunteer
their time to organize our regional monthly group meetings. Finally,
the SCVMA leadership - the Board of Trustees - installs its new officers and
remembers the contributions of those who have served organized veterinary
medicine for many years.
