About us

Care, made easy to act on

Kupkop — Filipino for “to take under one’s care” — is our whole reason for being. We’re building the place where compassion for animals turns into real help.

Our mission

Thousands of strays roam Philippine streets, and the shelters who care for them run on heart and little else. The people who want to help often don’t know where to start — and the moment of compassion passes. Kupkop PH exists to close that gap: to connect the people who want to help with the animals who need it, in the places they already live.

What we’re building

We’re starting with Sagip, our animal-welfare community — rescue, adoption, donations, walks, lost & found, and the stories that hold it all together. It’s designed as a loop: an animal spotted on the street can be rescued, cared for, adopted, and celebrated, with a role for everyone along the way. A services marketplace and AI-assisted features will follow in Phase 2.

Built on trust

Animal welfare only works when people trust each other. So trust and safety aren’t an afterthought — they’re built into the foundation.

Trust & safety

Built to be trusted

Verified people

Rescuers and shelters are verified before they can claim a rescue or list for adoption.

Your data, protected

Built around the Data Privacy Act (RA 10173) — you control what’s shared and with whom.

No funds held

Donations move directly between you and the shelter. We never touch the money in between.
