We're just getting started

Our journey began when we were working as volunteers at an animal shelter. Seeing pets in need not finding new homes, and organizations exceeding their capacity limits, we knew we had to do something. This led us to establish Balu, dedicated to creating impactful solutions for animal care and welfare.
