all for lifesaving relationships

We make the greatest lifesaving impact when we work together to build each other up and support one another in our goal to save more lives. We do this through adoption initiatives, recognition of effort and innovation, positive promotion and our investments in your lifesaving efforts.

Disaster Relief
Petco Foundation’s disaster relief program provides support in the event of a natural disaster such as a hurricane, flood, tornado, fire, earthquake or other act of nature. When a natural disaster occurs the Petco Foundation’s disaster relief application will be open for submissions.

The Holiday Wishes campaign gives adopters the opportunity to share their stories of how their pet changes their life, and gives the animal welfare organization they adopted from a chance to win a grant of up to $100,000 from the Petco Foundation, in partnership with Petco.
