Pet Paradise press release
Dr. Jaime Klimsey Pickett has pledged more than $ 200,000 to several educational institutions. Dr. Pickett is the Chief Veterinary Officer and Vice President at Pet Paradise, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida. She hopes the gift will encourage students to consider careers in healthcare and veterinary medicine.
“This donation is made with recognition and gratitude for the efforts of those who dedicate their lives to education,” said Dr. Pickett. “Given the shortage of teachers, understaffed medical facilities, and a limited number of veterinarians, it’s important to give back and reinvest in education.”
