The Clear the Shelters initiative is a national pet adoption campaign that is spearheaded by the NBCUniversal Owned Television Stations, a division of NBCUniversal. The Clear the Shelters effort, which teams up more than 40 local NBC and Telemundo television stations with hundreds of animal shelters from all across the country, returns for a third consecutive year after last year's highly successful inaugural effort which resulted in nearly 20,000 animals finding new homes.
