Community Involvement
Why it matters
to us
Caring for Pets. Supporting People. Strengthening Our Community.
At Papillion Animal Hospital, we believe veterinary medicine extends beyond our hospital walls. We are proud to serve not only the pets of our community, but the people, schools, families, and local organizations that make our area feel like home.
Community involvement isn’t an extra for us. It’s part of who we are.
We have built over a decade of real, meaningful relationships. Many of our staff live right here in the community. Your pets are our neighbors. Your kids go to school with ours. The parks you walk your dogs in are the same ones we visit with our own. When we support our community, we strengthen the trust and connection that allow us to care for pets at every stage of life, from first puppy visits to senior comfort care.

The PAH STEM Scholarship
At Papillion Animal Hospital, we believe in investing in the future. Each year, PAH awards scholarships to two local high school seniors who are pursuing higher education in science, math, or other STEM-related fields.
We created this scholarship to:
-
Encourage academic curiosity
-
Support students with big goals
-
Invest in future leaders, researchers, medical professionals, engineers, and innovators
-
Give back in a meaningful and lasting way
Supporting students at the start of their journey is one of the most impactful ways we can give back. Application details and deadlines are shared annually through the PLCS Foundation.

The PAH Angel Fund
We believe no pet should suffer due to unexpected financial hardship.
Our Angel Fund helps assist families facing difficult medical decisions. Through hospital fundraisers, calendar sales, and community donations, we are able to provide support when it’s needed most. Interested in contributing or learning more? Please contact our team.
Small Business Collaborations
We love partnering with other local businesses to create fun, meaningful experiences for pet owners.
Past collaborations have included:
-
Wellness events
-
Pet + fitness partnerships
-
Holiday markets
-
Educational workshops
We don’t show up at events just to put our name on a banner. We show up to listen, to learn, and to build lasting relationships. Being present in the community helps us stay connected to what matters most, people and their pets. It reminds us why we do this work every day.
Have an idea for a collaboration? We’re always open to creative partnerships that support pets and people.
