Empty the Shelters® nationwide adoption event
Since BISSELL Pet Foundation® launched Empty the Shelters® in 2016, the nation’s largest funded adoption event has helped homeless pets find families by making adoption more affordable for prospective pet owners. This event partners with shelters in 49 states and two Canadian provinces to take pets from shelter kennels to the couches of loving homes.

Fix the Future® free spay/neuter program
Fix the Future® is the nation’s fastest-growing free spay/neuter program. BISSELL Pet Foundation® addresses the lack of access and high cost of veterinary care for shelters and pet owners by deploying contract veterinarians from its nationwide network to areas in need. Fix the Future reduces unplanned litters, prevents shelter overcrowding, and transforms the lives of people and pets – one spay/neuter at a time.
