Kanguro Seguro: Pioneering Pet and Personal Insurance with Innovation, Diversity, and Compassion

September 11th, 2023

In the heart of Miami, a revolutionary force is reshaping the insurance landscape with innovation, cultural understanding, and a deep sense of social responsibility. Kanguro Seguro, a bilingual and digital pet insurance company, has swiftly become a beacon of trust and reliability in the insurance market, offering seamless and culturally relevant insurance coverage for the Latino community and beyond.

Mission and Origins

Kanguro Seguro’s mission is more than just a statement; it’s a commitment to providing an insurance experience that’s as compassionate as it is comprehensive. Founded by passionate pet lovers and finance professionals, the company’s origins are rooted in a shared love for pets and a dedication to addressing the real needs of the community. The founders, deeply rooted in their Colombian heritage, understood the cultural nuances and unique requirements of Latino pet owners, sparking the inception of Kanguro Seguro.

Cultural Relevance and Community Engagement

Kanguro Seguro’s bilingual services are just the beginning of its cultural relevance. The company dives deep into understanding the diverse and vibrant Latino community’s unique needs. Through culturally relevant marketing, personalized care, and community engagement initiatives, Kanguro Seguro ensures that every pet owner feels valued and understood. The company actively participates in local events, pet adoption drives, and educational initiatives, making a significant impact on animal welfare in Latino communities.

Innovation and Technological Integration

Kanguro Seguro’s success story is intertwined with its innovative spirit. The company boasts high claim processing rates, thanks to cutting-edge technologies such as optical character recognition (OCR) and AI capabilities. Pet owners can effortlessly submit claims 24/7 through the user-friendly app, experiencing a transparent and efficient process. Kanguro Seguro’s commitment to technological advancement extends to exploring telemedicine options for pets, ensuring timely medical advice from the comfort of home.

Expanding Horizons and Social Impact

Kanguro Seguro’s footprint is expanding rapidly. With a presence in 24 states and plans to enter more, the company is creating a diverse and inclusive community of pet owners. In states like California and New York, Kanguro Seguro is actively engaging with bilingual and bicultural communities, fostering connections and building relationships with pet parents from various backgrounds. The company’s founders envision closing 2023 with thousands of pet customers and a presence in more than 25 states, further solidifying their position as leaders in the pet insurance market.

A Paw-sitive Future: Alquila Tranquilo and Beyond

Looking ahead, Kanguro Seguro’s aspirations reach far beyond pet insurance. In 2024, the company is set to launch “Alquila Tranquilo,” a renters’ insurance product designed to offer coverage for personal items and general liability for those who rent their homes. This strategic expansion aligns perfectly with Kanguro Seguro’s vision to become a one-stop-shop for the Latino population’s daily insurance needs. By providing comprehensive coverage that is truly utilized throughout the year, Kanguro Seguro aims to simplify the insurance experience, offering peace of mind to its customers.

Through its unwavering dedication to innovation, cultural understanding, and community engagement, Kanguro Seguro is not merely offering insurance policies; it is crafting a future where every pet and every individual can live with security, comfort, and the assurance that they are valued and protected. In the vibrant mosaic of Miami and beyond, Kanguro Seguro stands tall as a symbol of compassion, inclusivity, and excellence, paving the way for a world where every insurance experience is as unique and vibrant as the communities it serves.

The Light Up the Night Gala brought stars, changemakers, and supporters together for a magical evening dedicated to breast health awareness.

September 28, 2025

Miami knows how to throw a party with a purpose, and on Friday, September 26, the Mayfair House Hotel & Garden bloomed into The Enchanted Garden for Luminous Global’s 4th Annual Light Up the Night Gala. The evening was equal parts glamour and heart, with guests arriving in style to support a mission that is transforming breast health awareness.

Supermodel and Real Housewives of New York original star Kelly Killoren Bensimon turned heads on the pink carpet, where she was joined by Luminous Global founder and CEO Marylin Dans and Florida House Representative Fabian Basabe. The arrivals set the tone for a night that was as celebratory as it was meaningful.

Inside the garden-inspired ballroom, the setting was pure magic. Guests sipped champagne beneath twinkling lights, live music floated through the air, and conversations flowed as advocates, changemakers, and community leaders came together. The energy of the room made it clear that this was not just another Miami gala. It was a gathering of people determined to make a difference.

The program honored this year’s awardees whose dedication to advocacy continues to shape the future of breast health. Their stories brought both smiles and tears, reminding everyone of the power of education, awareness, and early action. Proceeds from the evening directly supported The Luminous Advocacy Project, a nonprofit focused on promoting early detection, advancing education, and ensuring women everywhere have access to equitable medical care.

Highlights of the Evening

Guests were introduced to Luminous, the first breast familiarity tool designed to give users a visual reference of their own breast health. Presented as an app and awareness lifestyle guide, it helps women and men build consistent habits for self-familiarity. Luminous does not replace medical exams but complements them by empowering people to recognize changes early.

The gala also spotlighted the organization’s global outreach efforts. Upcoming missions include Medical Mission Honduras 2025: Pathway to Wellness, where volunteers and medical professionals will bring diagnostic care, health education, and vital breast health services to underserved communities abroad.

On the educational side, guests learned about the project’s commitment to spreading awareness through multilingual resources and school outreach programs, ensuring that communities both local and international have the knowledge they need to take charge of their health. The initiative’s vision also includes working toward FDA Class III approval for its device, a milestone that would make this technology more widely available.

A Night That Truly Glowed

By the time the music quieted and the last glasses were raised, it was clear that the night had lived up to its name. The gala was beautiful, it was fun, and it carried a glow of hope that left everyone inspired. Guests walked away with more than memories of an enchanting evening. They carried with them the reminder that awareness is action, and that together, Miami’s community can shine a light on change.
