We’re back at it again for the 2026 Clear The Shelters campaign and we need your help!
Now in its 12th year, Clear the Shelters is an annual, nationwide pet adoption campaign led by NBCUniversal Local, a division of NBCUniversal. Clear The Shelters has driven more than 1.3 million adoptions and raised more than $5.6 million in donations for participating shelters and rescues!
The 2025 Clear The Shelters campaign led to over 160,000 adoptions and raised more than $628,000 in donations for participating shelters and rescues — the highest fundraising total since 2020.
Last year, many of you donated making Clear the Shelters a huge success for MetroWest Humane Society. The campaign runs from August 1st to August 31st; however, each week will bring a different donation incentive from amazing partners (so keep your eyes on social media to help us maximize your generosity)! Donate now and help us boost our fundraising and reach during this amazing nationwide campaign!
