Lauren’s Zoo, a special needs animal shelter in Mobile, AL, needed a more professional website — so they reached out to creativePAW. I posted about their needs here on the blog, and many creative volunteers offered to help. Lauren’s Zoo chose Katherine Gallia of BKB Design Group, and were thrilled with her skills and professionalism. David of Lauren’s Zoo called Katherine a “credit to creativePAW.” You can see the new website here.
Thanks to Katherine — and to everyone who generously offered their skills to this special needs animal shelter!
