In general, veterinary medical and surgical fees are high because of the rapidly escalating costs of medicines, equipment and supplies as well as qualified technician salaries. However, at CVC, although we occasionally give a very small amount of remuneration to surgical veterinary technicians, all of us are solely volunteers and we depend on donations from animal loving Christians to help us pay for the significant costs of medicines, supplies, mobile clinic repairs and gas, etc. Our comittment is to to keep our financial policy as follows for all genuinely needy clients: "pay what you are able and when you are able".
