LIFTT Team Members Shilo Midelstead and Tana Stone visit with a youngster during the Give Local Glendive Event at the Eastern Plains Event Center on May 1, 2025. Give Local Glendive brought local nonprofits, businesses, and community members together to generate awareness of community programs, foster civic pride, and celebrate generosity.

On May 1, 2025, LIFTT proudly participated in Give Local Glendive – Community Day of Giving, an inspiring event organized by the Glendive Chamber of Commerce & Agriculture and the Greater  Glendive Community Foundation to celebrate generosity, civic pride, and local impact.

Held at the Eastern Plains Events Center downtown Glendive, the event brought together nonprofits, businesses, and community members with one shared goal: to strengthen local organizations that serve the people of Eastern Montana. LIFTT’s team was on hand to connect with attendees, share information about our services, and highlight the many ways we support aging and individuals with disabilities across our 18-county service area.

Our presence at the event helped increase public awareness of LIFTT’s mission, programs, and new transportation initiative in Eastern Montana. It also provided a valuable opportunity to build relationships with local residents, leaders, and fellow service providers.

We are grateful to the Glendive Chamber,  Greater Glendive Community Foundation, and to everyone who stopped by our booth, asked questions, or showed support. Events like these reinforce our belief in the power of community partnerships and the importance of making LIFTT’s services visible and accessible to all.

For more information about LIFTT’s operation in Glendive and the eastern portion of our service area, please call our Glendive office at (406) 948-8500 or stop by the office at 119 S. Kenderick Avenue. We are open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m
