Share Your Adoption Story and Help St. Hubert's Earn $100K

Has your adopted pet changed your life? Share your story and help St. Hubert’s earn $100,000 this holiday season. The Petco Foundation, together with BOBS from Skechers, want to know all the ways, big and small, that your adopted pet has changed your life for the better. Winning stories will receive up to a $100,000 Holiday Wishes grant award for their adoption organization and winning adopters will receive a Petco shopping spree and BOBS from Skechers shoes.


Submit your Holiday Wishes story by September 23

  1. If you’ve adopted a pet from St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center, and they are still living, share how your pet impacts your life for the better, every day.

  2. Visit petcofoundation.org/holidaywishes to register and submit your story and photos.

  3. When prompted to enter the organization where you adopted your pet, search for and select “St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center” in the search box.
