Your Dog’s Crush 🐶💞

Here is the Vision Statement:

Dira's Promise
VISION STATEMENT
At Dira's Promise, we envision a world where no pet suffers because their human is facing hardship. Our vision is a compassionate community where animals and their guardians are supported together, where access to food and veterinary care is not determined by income or circumstance, and where the human-animal bond is protected as a vital source of comfort, stability, and love. We strive for a future in which every pet is nourished, every family stays whole, and every act of care strengthens the connection between people and the animals who stand by them.

Here is the Founder’s Story…

Dira's Promise began with one extraordinary dog whose journey shaped my life in ways I never expected. More than ten years ago, Dira was rescued from the dog meat trade in South Korea - a past marked by fear, uncertainty, and survival. When she came into my life, she carried a quiet strength and a deep gentleness that felt nothing short of miraculous. Despite everything she had endured, she loved with her whole heart.
Dira wasn't just my companion, she was my soul dog. She grounded me, taught me resilience, and showed me what unconditional love looks like in its purest form. We grew together, healed together, and walked through life side by side.
When Dira passed away unexpectedly, the grief was immense. It still is. Yet in the midst of pain, a purpose began to take shape. I found myself thinking about all the people who rely on their animals for emotional stability, companionship, and hope — just as I relied on Dira — and how many of them struggle to meet their pets' basic needs because of food insecurity, housing instability, or financial challenges.
Honoring Dira's life means carrying forward the compassion she embodied.
That is how Dira's Promise was born.
This nonprofit stands as a tribute to her story...a story of survival, love, and second chances. By providing pet food, essential supplies, and veterinary care to pets whose humans are experiencing hardship, we aim to keep families together and ensure that no animal suffers because of circumstances beyond their guardian's control.

I know it’s a little early, but as soon as we get 100 combined followers on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, we’ll do an AMA episode on Mom, Watch This! 😁

Thanks to a very generous donor, we were able to buy 15 bags of dog food to help housed pets in need. I’ve been working on figuring out the legalities of a nonprofit and get that all set up - in the meantime, we’ve named it and I’m pretty certain I’ve settled on a logo…
