Teenagers from the Manassas Park Community Center teamed up with the Stafford County Animal Shelter to do some cleaning earlier this summer.
The Helping Hands Teen Camp serves multiple organizations and one chosen this summer was in Stafford County.

In exchange, the teens were able to play with some kittens and dogs who received love and affection and tour the facility.
