Prairie Grit Adaptive Sports in Minot, ND is currently running a three-month drive to support the organization this summer. Prairie Grit offers adaptive sports as well as various therapies for children with disabilities. In June, Aspire Credit Union collected a variety of foods for the organization’s feeding therapy program. This month, the focus is on collecting items used for occupational therapy, with a list available on Aspire’s website outlining the specific items needed in this category.
Rianne Kuhn, marketing and communications coordinator at Aspire, emphasized the importance of batteries as a crucial need for Prairie Grit. Many therapy equipment pieces require batteries, and the organization goes through an enormous amount of AA and AAA batteries. In August, the drive will shift gears to collecting items for speech therapy, but food items are still being accepted for donation.
Aspire and Prairie Grit are also accepting monetary donations to support their programs. This collaborative effort aims to provide essential resources for children with disabilities to receive the therapeutic support they need. Copyright 2024 KFYR. All rights reserved.
