Every Animal Deserves a Team.
Shelter Draft Pick is an animal welfare initiative that spotlights adoptable shelter animals through hockey-inspired "Draft Pick" profile cards.
By partnering with shelters, veterinary professionals, and members of the hockey community, we create engaging content that helps more animals get noticed, encourages responsible adoption, and connects people with local shelters.
How it works
Choose — A participating shelter selects an adoptable animal.
Draft — An NHL player features their Shelter Draft Pick through a custom hockey-inspired profile.
Adopt — Fans meet the animal, learn their story, and connect directly with the shelter to adopt or support.
