Brianna Wiggins
Development Team Leader
Born and raised in Rochester, NY, I've lived in the New York City area for the last 7 years. I am a fur-mom of three: two dogs and one cat and it is their world, I just pay rent to live in it. In my professional life, I sell enterprise technology and in my personal life, I'm an advocate and survivor who deeply believes in helping wherever I can. I love the outdoors (especially mountains), a perfectly made cup of coffee, and reading a new genre of book every month. Gabby's story has sparked a movement to help protect those that need protecting and it's an honor to be a part of it. “To do more for the world than the world does for you – that is success.” – Henry Ford

In Loving Memory of Kyle Gorinson
We honor the life and legacy of Kyle Gorinson, whose dedication and compassion made a lasting impact on our mission. As a valued member of our team, he selflessly gave his time, energy, and whole heart to support our organization.
Kyle had a deep love for animals, especially cats, and devoted countless hours volunteering at a local cat rescue in Baltimore, and helping Hope for Cleo Animal Rescue on Long Island. His kindness knew no bounds. He was dependable, incredibly smart beyond his years, and had a heart that was almost too big for this world.
Though he is no longer with us, his spirit lives on in the work we do and the lives we continue to touch. We are forever grateful for Kyle’s contributions and will carry forward his passion for making a difference.
Forever in our hearts.
