Inspiration

I recently came across multiple articles talking about how many small animal shelters were being overwhelmed and forced to euthanize the animals. I believe there is an opportunity to help these shelters while also making a profit.

What it does

It's a one-stop platform for small shelters to post fostering/adoption opportunities so they can have a much better chance of finding a customer. People can also go to this website to view all the opportunities in the area instead of going to each small shelter's website

How we built it

Django, Python, Html, CSS, Javascript

Challenges we ran into

Geo API was hard to integrate

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Creating a functioning platform and hosting it (hosting is brutal)

What we learned

The biggest thing I learned was how to use google maps API

What's next for HomeBound

I'm planning on making it a real thing. Going to finalize the website and reach out to nearby shelters.
