2025 Annual Report
From The Founder
Dear Lift Family,
It is with deep gratitude that I submit this report to you. First, to the families who link arms with us and allow us to walk alongside them on their journey, without you our mission would be empty.
To our volunteers who generously give their time and energy, you extend our reach far beyond what we could do alone. And to those who have given financially, your generosity empowers our mission to step into new places and serve in greater ways.
All of us at Lift express our deepest thanks to you. Great things were accomplished in 2025, and we hope you enjoy seeing what we have achieved together.

- Community: Monthly and annual events that build lasting relationships.
- Spiritual Formation: Weekly Bible study for spiritual growth and connection.
- Durable Medical Needs: Medical equipment provided for individuals with temporary needs.
Looking Ahead
There were many wonderful moments in 2025. It was a year of incredible momentum as we planted a new Elevate group in the city of Lakeland, Florida. This growth is a direct result of our Lift Family Gatherings, where every other month more than 100 family members come together to laugh, connect, and experience the power of community and love.
We also celebrate a record-breaking season of generosity. Every gift, every hour served, and every family who participated helped expand the horizon of our future.
Carrying this momentum forward, 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal and energizing year. Our team is working on several new opportunities to welcome more families, provide new tools for a successful life, and build even more bridges of connection. Together, we believe something very special is ahead for our organization. While we can’t reveal the details just yet, it could become one of the most significant milestones in our history.
Let’s stay connected. Lift will continue to pursue integrity, extend hope, and witness the power of life transforming the journey of disability. Thank you for partnering with us.
