We know just how critical nutrition is to the healthy lives of pets, but we do not stop there. Through donations, partnerships and pet disaster relief, we live out our Hill’s brand values every day. Supporting Shelter Pet Adoption To ensure that our efforts have the greatest impact, we partner with shelters, nonprofits and governmental organizations across the globe. Our Hill’s Food, Shelter & Love™ program has partnered with shelters since 2002, providing over $300 million worth of dog and cat food to more than 1,000 shelters and helping more than 12 million pets find new homes. We are well on our way to our goal of supporting the adoption of 15 million pets by 2025. Another pillar of our Food, Shelter & Love p rogram was serving as the national sponsor of NBCUniversal Local’s Clear The Shelters nationwide pet adoption and donation campaign in 2021 for t he fourth consecutive year in the U.S. In 2021, we provided 70,000 free new pet parent kits during the event and helped ensure that adopted pets would receive science-led nutrition from the start, to kick off their lives in their new loving homes. Working together with NBCUniversal Local owned a nd affiliate stations across the U.S. and Puerto Rico, we are proud to have helped more than 540,000 shelter pets find new homes through the Clear The Shelters campaign since 2018.
