T-Shirts
If you want to make a statement with your gift and really help the veterinary community, this NOMV (Not One More Vet) shirt is the perfect gift for your favorite vet tech over Vet Tech Week. NOMV is an online veterinary support group that gives the veterinary community members much-needed mental and group support.
Many veterinarians and veterinary technicians suffer each year from severe mental and physical stress through their jobs. Although we love what we do, it can be a very emotionally demanding career, and NOMV is here for those members of staff who need some extra outside support. Part of the proceeds from purchasing these shirts is donated back to the support group, making it a gift that will help support one vet tech and the whole veterinary community.
