Ice cream shop, car show raises money for animal shelter

In Luzerne County on Sunday, a scoop of ice cream helped save an animal's life.

PLAINS, Pa. — Handel's Ice Cream along North River Street in Plains Township planned to donate a portion of all ice cream sales to a no-kill cat rescue.

To help draw a crowd, the ice cream shop teamed up with the NEPA Car Nights. 

About 30 members of the club showed off their rides in the parking lot.

"We have about three-to-four events a year. We have a lot of events for our club-only members, but public events, we have three-to-four a year. It's great to be able to give back," said Michael DiMatteo with NEPA Car Nights.

Twenty percent of all ice cream sales were set aside for the cat shelter following the fundraiser in Luzerne County.
