VetCor Community Connections - August Edition
August 28, 2018
As always, our practice teams are out and about in their communities, lending helping hands wherever they're needed. They put on car washes, host food pantries, star in nationally broadcasted PSAs, and even build wheelchairs for their furry friends in need. We are so proud of them for all that they do to help build and foster connections in their local communities.
Check out some of our favorite examples of Community Connections from August below!
