Meet Legacy Donor Betty Chiao As a lifetime animal lover with an affinity for special needs rescues, I have always depended on the Schwarzman AMC. I have been able to adopt some of the more critical, special needs rescues because I know I have a team at AMC whom I can rely on to give them the medical care and support they need to live a spoiled and enriched life—and this enriches mine. I named AMC as the beneficiary of my will to ensure that the cutting-edge medical treatments, state-of-the-art equipment, innovative techniques, and compassionate care afforded to my fur babies will save the lives of rescues and special needs pets even after I am gone. That will be my legacy. The Ellin Prince Speyer Legacy Society allows me to participate in special events and gain additional insight into the specialty work happening at AMC. This fueled my interest in becoming even more involved, so I volunteer as a community advisor to the Usdan Institute for Animal Health Education. I am proud that my legacy will help AMC continue enriching and improving the health and lives of pets and the people who love them. Yours will too.
