The organization has committed up to $1 million in grant funding to support relief efforts and distributed more than $960,000 to multiple animal welfare organizations supporting people and pets in need throughout areas affected by Hurricanes Florence and Michael.

Additionally, every PetSmart store, including this location in Panama City, builds long-lasting relationships with local animal welfare organizations to utilize its stores as adoption centers. PetSmart and its adoption partners have helped find lifelong, loving homes for more than 8 million pets.
