Minimum Required Endowment
The minimum endowment to secure enrollment in the Stevenson
Companion Animal Life-Care Center depends upon the age of the
youngest owner at the time of enrollment. The endowment required
for each animal can be established by bequest through a will or
trust, or can be fully paid-up at the time of enrollment with a
considerable discount. There is no enrollment fee required with a
Paid-up Endowment. Both options are outlined below.
