PetSmart in the news

PetSmart has been in the news for a number of reasons during 2017. In PetSmart’s Buy a Bag, Give a Meal program, the pet specialty retailer will match every bag of dog or cat food purchased online and in US, Canada and Puerto Rico stores with a donation of a meal to a pet served by pet shelters, animal welfare organizations and food banks. The philanthropic effort marks the celebration of PetSmart’s thirtieth anniversary.

PetSmart expects to contribute more than 60 million meals under this philanthropic program, which is the pet specialty retailer's biggest philanthropic campaign in its 30-year history. The program will run March 1 to December 31, 2017.
