About
Jonathan Goers Bike Program
Adapted Bike Giveaway
During our Ride to Thrive celebration at Bike for the Kids, we provide custom-adapted bikes to children with disabilities. Launched with the Jonathan Goers Bike Club and now grown with the help of donors like the Yes We Can Cycling team, Meredith Williams Foundation, and B4DWN cycling team, the program helps foster independence, mobility, and the joy of cycling.
With support from our Physical Therapy team and partner Hal Honeyman, they help assess client needs and make sure the bikes are fitted with the right equipment.
For more information on the bike giveaway, please contact Cassandra Salinas at csalinas@eastersealsdfvr.org.
