Giving Opportunities in the Spotlight

New Equine and Farm Animal Veterinary Center

Our Equine Health and Farm Animal Programs are committed to pioneering advances in medical technology and providing the highest level of care to horse owners, trainers, and producers. With your help, NC State’s new Equine and Farm Animal Veterinary Center will set a new standard for equine and farm animal health.

New Magnetic Resource Imaging (MRI)

We believe that health care should be handled in a proactive fashion. Our goal is to fund a new Magnetic Resource Imaging scanner. A Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is the gold standard in helping veterinary clinicians and scientists to arrive at vital answers to what is going on with their patients and to develop better treatment options.
