Treating sick and injured wildlife
Help us to provide critical care and treatment to sick and injured wildlife, from ducks, kookaburras and kangaroos to wombats, bandicoots and turtles. Donations also support UQ veterinary students to build wildlife care skills.
Give to the Wildlife and Emergency Care Fund
Researching cures for sick pets
Help us to better diagnose, treat and hopefully cure animal illnesses. UQ researchers work to identify therapies, improve care and predict survival rates for diseases such as feline diabetes and canine cancers.
Give to the Companion Animals Research Fund
Donating blood to save lives
Dog blood donations allow us to perform urgent blood product transfusions for immune-related conditions and a range of traumas. Every donation to our program has the potential to save two dogs’ lives.
Give to the Community Blood Donor Program
Providing care where it’s needed
Your support helps us to provide exceptional care and the latest equipment to diagnose, treat and prevent diseases. It also helps to provide services and research, including investigations into equine laminitis.
Give to the Greatest Needs Fund

Support the vet stars of tomorrow

Studying veterinary science requires passion, dedication and outstanding academic results. Many talented people are unable to pursue their dream of attending university due to financial or personal hardship, or even regional isolation.

You can help create a student scholarship to ensure that UQ’s future veterinary stars get a successful start.
