Friends and Furmily is a superconnector for animal rescue—bridging the gap between need and action by linking skilled people to short-term projects, amplifying the voices of rescues and animal charities locally and internationally, and sharing donation drives and fundraising efforts to fuel their work.

Animal welfare is at a breaking point—rescues and shelters everywhere face crushing overpopulation, abandonment, cruelty, exploitation, and global inequity. Many communities lack the resources for care and sterilization, and even where solutions exist, time and manpower are scarce.

This is where Friends and Family steps in. With over 15+ years in animal rescue in Seattle, WA, founder Kelli Bielema knows the people who can make a real difference. Leveraging a deep network of foster parents, grant writers, transporters, marketing experts, fundraising pros and other experts, Friends and Furmily provides strategic support to help animal charities achieve their goals fast and effectively.
