As summer draws to a close, LIFE Mower County is reaching out to the community with an urgent call for support to meet the goals of its Summer Appeal 2024. Despite the warm months slipping away, the organization is still short of its fundraising target, which is essential to continuing to provide vital services and programs to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.

LIFE Mower County, a cornerstone in the community, has been dedicated to enriching the lives of those it serves through advocacy, education, and social opportunities. The Summer Appeal is a crucial fundraising effort that supports various programs, including skill-building workshops, social events, and family support services designed to promote independence and inclusion.

The need for community support has never been more pressing. The funds raised through the Summer Appeal ensure that LIFE Mower County can continue to offer high-quality programs and reach more individuals in need. Your support is not just a donation; it’s a lifeline that allows us to expand our reach and serve more people. LIFE is asking community members, businesses, and local leaders to consider making a donation, no matter the size, to help bridge the gap.
