Help 'Clear The Shelters' At Lacey's Popcorn Park With Adoption Event

FORKED RIVER, NJ — It's never been a better time to grow your family by four furry legs thanks to the Clear The Shelters adoption event going on now through Sept. 10 at the Associated Humane Societies Popcorn Park Shelter.

"To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Clear the Shelters, we are offering name-your-price adoptions for adult pets," the shelter announced Monday.

Clear The Shelters is a nationwide adoption campaign from NBCUniversal Local.

"Surpassing the one millionth all-time adoption last year and now celebrating our 10th campaign are not just milestones, these numbers help quantify the incredible support Clear The Shelters has received from communities around the nation and the impact it's had on vulnerable animals and the shelters that care for them," Meredith McGinn, NBCUniversal Local's Executive Vice President of Diginets & Original Production, said in a news release.

Through Sept. 10, at any AHS location (Forked River, Tinton Falls and Newark) all adoptable adult pets can be adopted by naming your own price. All pets are fully vetted, vaccinated, microchipped, spayed/neutered, and more, according to the shelter.

"Countless homeless pets in shelters everywhere are waiting for YOU to make all the difference in their lives," the shelter said.
