Ways to Give to Dr. Ritchie's PDD Research

  • Dr. Ritchie earns a salary from the University of Georgia, but ALL his funding is made possible by PRIVATE donations!
  • For his research to continue, and for us to find a cure for PDD, it's important that everyone continues to donate.

    1) Contribute to Avian Health Network
    • The UGA administrative costs associated with donating any amounts are the same. So it is advantageous
      to contribute through Avian Health Network because they make several large contributions annually
      therefore maximizing the amount that actually goes to Dr. Ritchie for research.
    2) You can donate to his PDD research online (please remember #1)
    • Go to www.vet.uga.edu
    • click on "How to give to the College of Veterinary Medicine"
    • "Make a Gift Online"
    • under Account, look for "Ritchie-Companion Animal Emerging Disease Fund"
    3) You can write a check (please remember #1)
    • Make the check payable to the "Arch Foundation"
      (the Arch Foundation of the official fundraising arm of UGA)
    • make sure under For on check: you put
    • "Ritchie-Companion Animal Disease-Bird" so that the money goes to Dr. Ritchie
    4) Donate in honor of someone/some animal or as a memorial
      Example...
        In memory of Fido,
        Companion Dog of
        Mr & Mrs. John Jones
        456 Their Street
