April 25, 2021

East Bay SPCA announced today a $10,000 grant investment from the newly named, Petco Love, to support their lifesaving work for animals in Alameda and Contra Costa counties.

Petco Love is a nonprofit leading change for pets nationally by harnessing the power of love to make communities and pet families closer, stronger, and healthier. Since their founding in 1999 as the Petco Foundation, they've empowered organizations with nearly $300 million invested to date in adoption and other lifesaving efforts. And, they've helped find loving homes for more than 6.5 million pets in partnership with Petco and more than 4,000 organizations, like ours, nationwide.

"Today Petco Love announces an investment in the East Bay SPCA and hundreds of other organizations as part of our commitment to create a future in which no pet is unnecessarily euthanized," said Susanne Kogut, President of Petco Love. "Our local investments are only one component. This month, we will also launch the first of our national tools to empower all animal lovers to drive lifesaving change right alongside us."

"We are very grateful for this generous grant from Petco Love," said Allison Lindquist, President & CEO of the East Bay SPCA. "This important funding will support our many programs and services that help save animal lives in our community and help promote the priceless bond between humans and their companion animals."
