Trishaw Bike Purchase for Local Elderly CWOA Massachusetts
Donation protected
For the past few years I have been visiting my mom each morning at a long term care facility. She is very fortunate to have a lot of visitors to spend time with her and to bring her for outings. Unfortunately, the majority of the residents have limited if any family and rarely go outside.
When my niece suggested I take a look at "Cycling Without Age", I knew I had to make this happen. I have had a love of biking since I was a child and still am my happiest when I'm on my bike.
I am hoping to purchase a trishaw and volunteer my time taking elderly for rides so they can feel the wind in their hair!
There is a facility in Brighton that currently has a trishaw and they have offered to train me to operate the trishaw. I hope to volunteer there first and then if enough money is raised, purchase a trishaw for the Peabody area. This organization is all volunteer! There are no passenger fees! (I AM OFFICIALLY A TRAINED PILOT AS OF JUNE 2021)
Please help me get this started in our area and provide happiness (even if briefly) to our elderly community!
