Kinesthetic Movement

Help me give my students Triad Terrier Trikes to help my severe special needs students stay active with bikes that can support their disability.

My Project

My students range from age 5-14 and have severe disabilities and their weight is a health concern. These Triad Trikes will allow them to actively move in a fun and engaging way.

Help my students stay healthy by giving them a way to move.

They have limited mobility and the special design of the Triad Trikes will allow them to exercise while playing, which leads to a healthier child. We do not have trikes large enough to support their weight which leaves them without resources to lead them to a healthier life style. With your support my students will be able to stay active, in the most fun way.
