SAVA I SAVV SAVA Debit Orders – 2025 Membership Fees The debit order system implemented in 2019 has proven to be a great success, and we are pleased to offer this convenient option to members again for 2025. Members can choose to spread their membership fees over 10 months (February – November 2025) or a shorter period if they renew or join later in the year. Important Notes: • A new Debit Order Mandate must be completed by members each year. Members who utilized the debit order option in 2024 are also required to submit a new mandate. • Completed mandates must be emailed to bookkeeper@sava.co.za no later than Monday, 20 January 2025. • The 2025 mandate is available on the SAVA website and will also be included with membership invoices sent in early January 2025. • R50.00 penalty will apply for any unpaid debit orders. Support SAVA-CVC and SAVF Through Your Donations SAVA-CVC The revitalised SAVA-CVC continues its invaluable work in supporting communities through charitable initiatives. To ensure the sustainability of these efforts, we encourage members to consider contributing an additional R100.00 per month via debit order towards SAVA-CVC’s operating costs and community projects. SAVF The South African Veterinary Foundation (SAVF) supports veterinary research, bursaries, and projects that advance veterinary and biological sciences. By contributing through your debit order, you can help expand the foundation’s ability to fund impactful research that improves the well-being of animals and humans. Members can add an optional monthly contribution of R100.00 to the SAVF via debit order. Together, let’s ensure SAVA and its affiliated organizations continue to make a difference.
