Maxxie was more than a dog. He was family. A soul full of loyalty, joy, and quiet wisdom - a reminder that animals feel, love, and live deeply. When we lost him, we realized something profound: if we're building a better future, it cannot be for humans alone.
We live in an age of unprecedented technological power. We're extending human lifespans, building artificial minds, reshaping the very fabric of existence. Yet somehow, in all our grand visions of tomorrow, we've forgotten our oldest companions.
This is not about charity. This is about justice. If consciousness deserves dignity, if suffering demands our attention, if love earns protection - then species is irrelevant. The capacity to feel is what matters.
We're funding two parallel paths: immediate relief and radical possibility. Open-source tools that solve today's problems. And frontier research into animal longevity, health, and wellbeing that matches our ambitions for ourselves.
Because if we're dreaming of centuries-long human lives, of uploading consciousness, of colonizing other worlds - why shouldn't they dream alongside us?
The Maxxie Gesino Fund is a tribute to one dog, and a promise to millions more: You matter. We see you. And we're building the future with you in it.
Building an efficient impact allocation machine
There are millions of foundations focused on donating to shelters and traditional animal welfare. While this work is vital, we believe there's a more strategic approach to creating lasting change.
A fund structure helps us align incentives towards building an efficient money allocation machine designed to secure the maximum amount of impact per dollar invested.
Our fund structure allows for continuous investment and reinvestment, creating a compounding effect that grows our impact capacity over time.
With 0.25% management fees (covering only operational costs) and 20% carry reinvested into future funds, we're incentivized for long-term success.
Every success compounds into greater capacity for impact. Our 20% carry doesn't line pockets—it seeds the next generation of animal welfare innovations.
This creates a self-sustaining ecosystem where successful investments in animal welfare technology and research directly fund more ambitious projects, creating an exponential growth curve for impact.
