LIFE Mower County

This Nov. 21, Give to the Max Day offers a powerful chance to support individuals with diverse abilities in Mower County. Starting November 1, early giving lets you spread your generosity over time, helping LIFE Mower County provide essential programs and resources to people of all ages with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD).

Your donation ensures that LIFE Mower County can continue delivering vital services that foster inclusion, independence, and community connection. From adaptive recreational activities to advocacy and family support, your contribution empowers individuals to reach their full potential.

Every dollar directly enhances lives—supporting sensory room supplies, adaptive equipment, and accessible spaces for learning and growth. Plus, each gift made during Give to the Max could help LIFE Mower County win part of the $100,000 plus Prize Pool, with nearly 150 chances to win!

Join us this Give to the Max Day to strengthen community bonds and offer life-changing opportunities. Together, we can build a brighter, more inclusive future!
