#OtherPeopleMatter Day giving back to the Oakland County Animal Shelter. We had a guest speaker, Joanie Toole and a furry friend, Spirit, teach us about the shelter. We created adoption posters for animals who are up for adoption which we will hang in pet stores near the area. We also made treats for the shelter dogs!
