Give, Laugh, Love ~ February 7, 2026

You Gave. You Laughed. You Loved. And Because of You…

Our community came together in the most incredible way for lifempowered’s 3rd Annual Give, Laugh, Love.

The laughter was loud.
The generosity was bold.
The love was undeniable.

And because of you, our work continues.

Your presence and support directly fuel opportunities for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Columbia County — opportunities for independence, meaningful connection, and true belonging.

This event was never just about comedy or dinner. It was about building a community that chooses inclusion, opportunity, and dignity.

To every guest, sponsor, volunteer, donor, and community partner — thank you.

Because of you, lives are empowered.
