It's that time again -- the AAVLD Foundation Auction is just around the corner, and we're inviting you to help make it a celebration of support and generosity! With the auction landing on Halloween this year, it's sure to be a festive and spooktacular event.

Over the past few years, many labs have faced real challenges in recruiting skilled veterinary diagnosticians. That's why the mission of the AAVLD Foundation to recruit, educate, and retain the next generation is more vital than ever. Thanks to your donations, 100% of the funds raised have gone directly to travel awards and recognition for diagnostic excellence.

The annual auction and banquet are not only great ways to build social connections, but also the primary source of funding for this important work, powered by donations from labs, universities, and individuals. Recently, though, we've seen fewer items coming in from member labs, and we would love to reverse that trend.

What makes great auction items?
- Jewelry
- Regional artwork
- Local specialties (food, gift baskets, etc.)
- Experiences (cabin stays, guided fly-fishing trips, or cooking classes)

Let's rally together to support the future of veterinary diagnostics. Your donation helps build a strong sustainable workforce and makes this year's auction a real treat for everyone. Please refer to the auction flyer for details on deadlines and shipping instructions.

Thank you for supporting the AAVLD Foundation!
