Scholarships and Philanthropy in Her Name
The Dame Olga Uvarov Research Medal, worth £1000, is a philanthropy named in her honour.
In 2000 the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Trust launched an appeal for funds to commemorate Uvarov's life of leadership in veterinary science. The Trust's Dame Olga Uvarov Travel Scholarship was established to provide grants (presumably for potential veterinary students) until the trust is depleted.

Famous quotes containing the word philanthropy:
“I shall not be forward to think him mistaken in his method who quickest succeeds to liberate the slave. I speak for the slave when I say that I prefer the philanthropy of Captain Brown to that philanthropy which neither shoots me nor liberates me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
