What a day! 🎉🎄

Last Wednesday, we kicked off our holiday celebration with Reindeer Games, where teams brought the fun, the laughs, and a little friendly competition. Shoutout to Team Hot Cocoa for taking home the win! 🏆👏

Next up was our Secret Santa and White Elephant gift exchanges, which delivered big laughs, fun surprises, and some unforgettable moments 🎁😂

We wrapped it all up with lunch and bowling at KingPinz, where the competition continued and the good times kept rolling 🎳🍕

Days like this remind us how lucky we are to work alongside such an amazing group of people. Holiday party success! ✨💙

Huge thank you to Nick, owner of Adaptive Life Therapy, for taking part in Pie in the Face! 🥧

Keep an eye out around Giving Hearts Day as we drop Nick's pie footage when we reach the next 10-doantion milestone...👀🥧

We had so much fun taking part in Giving Hearts Day’s Pie in the Face to support the Freedom Resource Center!

Giving Hearts Day began in 2008 through the Dakota Medical Foundation in Fargo, ND, with a simple but powerful idea: around Valentine’s Day, show love not just to the people in your life—but to the charities that strengthen our communities too.

At Adaptive Life Therapy (ALT), we’re proud to give back, get a little messy, and support organizations doing meaningful work every day. Thank you to everyone who donated, cheered, laughed, and helped make this day such a success! 💙

🥧 You showed up, the donations rolled in, and the pies follow 🥧

Every time we receive 10 donations, the pies start flying, and Katelyn just found that out the fun way.

Giving Hearts Day is Thursday, February 12, 2026, and our goal is $25,000, representing the 1 in 4 people living with a disability. Every donation helps empower people with disabilities to live more independently and pushes us closer to the next milestone… and the next pie. 👀🥧
