This organization was founded by Gabriella McKim, inspired during a long animal transport when she realized there were countless people along the way who could have helped—if only they had known about it. The idea grew throughout 2024, with input from over 50 members of the rescue community, including fosters, transporters, and shelter leaders. Their feedback helped shape the vision of a connected, collaborative network for animal rescue.
In September 2025, Gabriella brought together a group of like-minded individuals to form the founding board, and the organization officially became a nonprofit. Since then, the team has been focused on refining the concept, gathering input from the rescue community, and preparing for the next steps in fundraising and resource development.
Gabriella’s passion for streamlining animal rescue stems from firsthand experience and a belief that no animal should be delayed or overlooked due to fragmented communication. With fundraising underway, the organization is laying the groundwork to build tools and programs that will support volunteers, connect rescues and shelters, and improve outcomes for animals in need.
