Olivia's Dream: Adaptive Bike Donations

Elena Noble, MPT | June 2012
A young girl helping a special needs child on a tricycle during Bike 4 Friendship

Olivia loves cycling and she wanted to make sure other children with special needs got to experience the same thrill. As part of her Bat Mitzvah project Olivia worked with Friendship Circle to provide 100 children with adaptive bicycles and tricycles. I loved the radiant faces of the children in this video as they debuted their bikes. Don’t miss it.
