The opening of Search Atlas Animal Sanctuary in Medellín, Colombia represents a significant development in sustainable animal rescue, funded through a portion of proceeds from the founders’ technology company. Sophia Deluz, Chief Operating Officer of Search Atlas, and Manick Bhan, Founder and CEO, announced the permanent refuge this month, which currently houses more than 30 rescued animals including donkeys, dogs, cats, sheep, chickens, a rabbit, and a mother cow with her calf saved from a slaughterhouse.
The sanctuary was created specifically to provide permanent care for animals requiring long-term support, including senior dogs, farm animals rescued from unsafe conditions, and animals needing specialized medical attention. According to Deluz, who serves as COO of Search Atlas and co-founder of the animal sanctuary, caring for animals has always been central to their identity. The establishment of the sanctuary alongside the growth of Search Atlas, the AI-powered SEO platform co-led by Deluz and Bhan, demonstrates an innovative approach to funding animal welfare initiatives.
‘Opening an animal sanctuary has been a dream since the beginning of our relationship,’ Deluz said. ‘We’re grateful that the success of Search Atlas has allowed us to turn that dream into a safe, permanent home for animals who need a home.’ This model creates a sustainable funding stream where a portion of Search Atlas proceeds directly supports daily operations at the sanctuary, ensuring each resident receives veterinary care, proper nutrition, and an environment designed around its specific needs.
The sanctuary’s location in Medellín, Colombia provides a permanent refuge for animals that might otherwise face uncertain futures.

The integration of business success with animal welfare creates a replicable model that could influence how other companies approach corporate social responsibility, particularly in the technology sector where rapid growth often creates opportunities for meaningful philanthropic investment.
