Dear Friends,

We started Otter Pass for the dads we know, who come to fatherhood with a sense of purpose. We want a lot of things for our kids, more than merely being happy or finding financial success. Instead, we want our kids to have, inside of them, what it takes to make the world a better place.

Today's dads want to equip our kids with a solid foundation so they can handle whatever life throws their way. We hunger to pass down the lessons and principles that allow our kids to live life to its fullest. As we connect with them, we teach our children to know themselves fully in order to be intentional about loving others, helping those in need, and standing up for what’s right. As a company, we are setting out to create functional, practical products that meet fathers where they are: as capable, engaged parents.

As we set the vision for Otter Pass, we kept this modern dad in mind. Finding the time to connect with our children is at a premium since dads are also being pulled to spend more and more time at work. Consequently, dads strive to be intentional about every interaction.
 
Busy dads know that everyday moments can be the most important. Putting a Band-Aid on a skinned knee, wiping a snotty nose, having snacks available to prevent a meltdown at the grocery store, and grabbing a bite to eat for dinner are all opportunities to connect.
 
Otter Pass products are designed to help dads take advantage of every second we get with our children. As today’s dads balance work and life, we hope to give them the tools they need at their fingertips so they can spend time focusing on what matters most: their kids.
 
Thank you for joining us on this journey.
