It Opens A New World for Ava and Aubree
And for these two sisters, it is only the beginning…
Twin sisters, Ava and Aubree each received their own adaptive bikes AND adaptive strollers from Variety (pictured above on their new bikes), but receiving the equipment was only the beginning for them and their family.
Their mom, Kelsey shared how much they loved their new bikes, by saying,
“We brought their bikes inside last night and set them up on the stationary stands. Ava and Aubree were riding them until bedtime, and then went straight to them as soon as they woke up!”
Kelsey really got to the heart of how life-changing the strollers are when she shared, “These strollers make it possible to take the girls places. We want them to be as safe as possible, but also be able to go to events/outings just like typical kids can.
We’ve been able to go to the zoo twice this year, and we even bought a membership, which we would have never done if not for these strollers. So… there are no words to thank you all enough.”
Over the last year, Variety’s impact has been truly remarkable and historic for our small organization, and that impact isn’t slowing down.
For many months now, we have been receiving more than 30 applications per week, and by the end of June, we are scheduled to present another 85-100 pieces of adaptive equipment!
However, right now, we desperately need to raise funds for our My Bike® and My Stroller® Programs. We are writing to ask you to join us in a Mobility Campaign to make sure no child has to wait on their adaptive bike or stroller.
If you are able to help, we would greatly appreciate it. These kids wait on so many things, so it is my hope that we will not need a waiting list at all.
You can give a donation online for My Bike or My Stroller, or use the attached donation form to give by mail.
Truly, any amount will make a difference because if we all give some, there is no stopping how many more kids we can impact, TOGETHER!
