The troop worked closely with the Greater Birmingham Humane Society (GBHS) to make a difference in the lives of sheltered animals. Not only did the girls make newspaper rolls for cleaning the cages easily, but they also set up a pet food drive and were able to donate over $500 worth of food to the GBHS. With the monetary donations the girls received, they purchased two small mammal habitats for the GBHS.
