Our commitment to caring extends beyond the walls of our clinic. We take pride in not only providing exceptional veterinary services but also actively engaging with and supporting our local community. At Family Pet Veterinary Center we understand the importance of giving back and fostering connections beyond pet care. Through various initiatives and partnerships, we strive to make a positive impact on the lives of both animals and humans alike. Join us as we share our journey of community involvement and the meaningful ways we contribute to the well-being of our local communities and its residents.

Food Drive

Annually we participate in the donation drive to benefit The Pet Project Midwest  which is hosted by Griff II, Drake University Live Mascot. We act as a donation drive drop site and actively donate food to this cause as well. 

In 2024 we collected and donated 850lbs of pet food. Our 2025 goal is 900lbs!
