Joybound is proud to team up with NBC Bay Area, NBCUniversal, and hundreds of other shelters and rescue organizations across the country to host Clear the Shelters throughout the month of August a nationwide pet adoption and donation campaign that helps find loving homes for animals in need. With thousands of cats and dogs eagerly waiting to start their next chapter, Clear the Shelters offers a powerful opportunity to spotlight the life-changing work happening every day in our communities.
Every Saturday in the month of August, Joybound will be celebrating Clear the Shelters by offering waived adoption fees* for adult dogs and cats (6 months and older). Together, we can Clear the Shelters nationwide!
*Some exclusions may apply. Standard adoption criteria applies. Does not include ESA adoptions.
“Clear the Shelters is about more than adoption. It’s about community, compassion, and the incredible transformations that happen when people and pets find each other.”
– Miguel Abi-hassan, Joybound Chief Programs Officer
