Mission Statement
To improve the quality of life for all companion animals by creating and supporting programs that save the lives of homeless pets and promote healthy relationships between people and pets.
Expert Reviews
PetSmart Charities is the largest grantmaker funding spay neuter programs and advancing adoption of homeless pets. Their focus is entirely on companion animals but the impact is profound. They have enabled 4 million adoptions to date and distributed $109 million in grants in their fifteen year history, primarily to local shelters.
Impact Statement from Nonprofit
Annually in the United States, an estimated 6 million to 8 million homeless pets enter shelters. About half of them – 4 million pets – must be euthanized. Countless other homeless pets struggle to survive as strays. PetSmart Charities® was established in 1994 to save the lives of homeless pets, and strives to achieve this goal through its support and facilitation of pet-adoption programs, targeted spay/neuter services for dogs and cats, emergency relief for pets affected by natural and manmade disasters, and by working to professionalize the animal-welfare field.
- PetSmart Charities partners with and provides funding to more than 2,500 local animal welfare organizations and shelters, helping them to find responsible, new homes for approximately 400,000 dogs, cats and small animals annually through PetSmart Charities’ adoption centers, which are located in every PetSmart® store.
- By supporting and promoting targeted, high-impact spay/neuter efforts for dogs and cats, PetSmart Charities helps to reduce the number of homeless puppies and kittens born every year. Annually, PetSmart Charities provides grant funding to support spay or neuter surgeries at low-cost, high-quality, high-volume spay/neuter clinics across the U.S.
- PetSmart Charities’ Emergency Relief efforts ensure that necessary care is readily available for animals displaced by disasters in the continental U.S. each year.
- By professionalizing the animal-welfare field, PetSmart Charities helps to increase the knowledge and skill sets of those who work or volunteer in shelters and animal-welfare agencies.
