About the Event
📣 Announcing August's Clear the Shelters Event!
NBCUniversal Local is teaming up with hundreds of shelters across the country to host Clear The Shelters in August 2026, a nationwide pet adoption and donation campaign that helps find loving homes for animals in need. More than 1 million pets have found their forever homes since 2015.
Since its 2015 inception, Clear The Shelters has helped more than 860,000 pets find new homes. The 2022 campaign established a new single-year record with more than 161,000 adoptions, while also raising more than $540,000. Nearly 1,400 animal shelters and rescues covering all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam participated in last year’s campaign.
That means adoption specials for you! This year is maybe the most important in clearing the shelters due to the overwhelming amount of dogs nationwide! Help us find them loving homes and get a bargain on your adoption!
