About VETS IN VANS INC

Vets in Vans is a Bay Area–based nonprofit mobile veterinary clinic founded in October 2022 that brings full-spectrum, low-cost veterinary services directly into underserved communities. The organization provides urgent care, preventive services, spay/neuter and other surgical procedures, dental care, microchipping, and end-of-life support while offering tiered pricing, payment plans, and translation services to reduce financial and access barriers. The EIN 37-2029710 has been verified against publicly available nonprofit filings and the organization’s own annual report. Over the past 2–3 years Vets in Vans has grown rapidly, expanding clinic days, securing multi-year grants from national animal welfare funders, and reporting measurable service volume and financial growth in its FY2024–FY2025 reporting period.
