A pro-bono build for a Toledo animal shelter.

01Why we took it on

Stark Create is named after Stark, our owner's German Shepherd and Chief Barketing Officer — so an animal shelter is about as on-brand a cause as we could ask for. Operation Saves does the hard, unglamorous work of rescuing animals in the Toledo area, and we wanted their online presence to match the heart behind it. Every bit of this engagement was, and still is, pro bono.
