Did you know October is National Physical Therapy Month and October 27 was World Occupational Therapist Day? SOAR365 is so grateful for the crucial role our PT's/OT's in enhancing mobility, improving daily living skills, and fostering independence for those with disabilities. Their expertise helps individuals overcome challenges, achieve goals, and live their best lives. To recognize them and the entire staff, we asked Sam, Emily and Megan to share what their favorite part of being a PT/OT is! Sam Cipolla, Physical Therapist - "My favorite part of being a PT is seeing when my kids learn something new and getting to see their progress. I also love when the parents get to see their child do something new that they might have thought their child wasn’t going to be able to do." Emily Rosenberger, Physical Therapist - "My favorite part of being a PT is being able to empower families to optimize health and development in their little ones through play in the natural environment." Megan Pesci, Occupational Therapist - "My favorite part of being an OT is getting to know the families and helping their little ones meet their milestones." #SOAR365 #RVA #NationalPhysicalTherapyMonth #WorldOTDay #DisabilityCommunity #TherapyHeroes #WellnessWarriors

Honored to Be Part of an Amazing Evening with SOAR365! I had the pleasure of attending the SOAR365 Donor Appreciation Dinner, where I was able to connect with some incredible individuals, including Jeff Conley, and celebrate the important work being done by this organization. It’s always inspiring to be surrounded by those who are dedicated to creating life-fulfilling opportunities for individuals with disabilities. As a proud supporter, Call Federal Credit Union stands with SOAR365 in supporting this mission. The evening was a testament to the power of community, compassion, and collaboration. I’m grateful for the chance to represent Call Federal and connect with other passionate advocates. Thank you to SOAR365 for hosting such a meaningful event, and to all the generous donors who make this work possible. Together, we’re making a difference! 💙 #CommunitySupport #DisabilityMatters #Teamwork #SOAR365 #CallFederalCreditUnion
