Connection is protection.
Our Mission
Tutela was created with one simple belief: every animal deserves a chance to be seen, protected, and connected to the people who can help. Our mission is to build a platform that brings animal welfare into one connected community, making it easier to discover adoptable animals, support rescues and sanctuaries, coordinate lifesaving resources and transportation, and connect people who want to help with the animals and organizations that need them most. We believe technology can do more than connect people; it can help save lives.
Right now, Tutela is being built from the ground up, and we’re raising the funds needed to turn this vision into a working platform. You can be part of building it with us. Follow the link below to donate directly through our GoFundMe, join our mailing list to follow our progress, or purchase a Tutela bag with proceeds helping fund the development and launch of the platform. Whether you donate, purchase, share, or simply follow along, every action helps bring Tutela one step closer to becoming a resource for animals everywhere.
SOCIAL MEDIA FOR ANIMALS AND ANIMAL ALLIES.
Every animal deserves a chance to be seen, protected, and connected to the people who can help.
ANIMALS DESERVE DIGNITY.
Tutela is a digital platform designed to make helping animals easier, faster, and more connected.
Today, people who want to adopt, foster, transport, donate, volunteer, or simply help an animal in need often have to navigate dozens of disconnected shelters, rescues, social media pages, and websites. Tutela brings those efforts together in one place.
The platform is being built to connect adopters, shelters, rescues, fosters, transporters, veterinarians, sanctuaries, volunteers, and animal advocates through a single, easy-to-use network. Users will be able to discover adoptable animals, find ways to help animals in need, connect with trusted organizations and services, support rescue efforts, and follow the impact of the animal welfare community around them.
Our goal is simple: remove the barriers between people who want to help and the animals who need them.
Tutela means protection, guardianship, and care and that is exactly what we intend to build.
Carry a message of care wherever you go. This sturdy tote brings bright, nature-inspired art into everyday life - bees, wildflowers, and a collage of animals rendered in warm, geometric tones. The roomy, boxed design holds groceries, market finds, or a weekend’s worth of books. Sturdy black handles sit comfortably on the shoulder while reinforced seams and durable polyester mean this bag keeps its shape and stands up to daily use. Slip it on for errands, farmer’s market mornings, or outreach events to quietly share a love for pollinators and wildlife conservation.
