Bikes, Bases, & Beauty – A Special Evening In Morgantown, West Virginia!

Aubrey is all smiles as her mom, Kellie helps her maneuver from behind on the Black Bears’ field!

On August 30th, Variety – the Children’s Charity had the opportunity to present 3 adaptive bikes to children from West Virginia at the Monongalia County Ballpark! This special presentation was made possible in partnership with the WV Black Bears and Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield West Virginia, who helped to sponsor the bikes.

Madison waves to the camera, as a Black Bears’ players steers her across the field!

From the smiles on the kids’ faces, to the thrill / experience of them riding their bikes for the first time around the bases, to getting to personally meet the baseball players… this was certainly a night to remember for these three amazing kids and their entire family!

All three kids, their families, and others gather for a group photo – holding a check from Highmark West Virginia that went towards Variety’s “My Bike” Program!

We could not be more grateful to all those who help us, help these extraordinary children find freedom, joy, and belonging through their very own bike.
