Next week Buddy Bikes will provide 10 bikes to special needs children as part of the The Michaela Noam Kaplan Great Bike Giveaway. This online contest is organized by The Friendship Circle, a non-profit organization. The third annual contest is currently in progress and has already surpassed the previous contests in donations, prizes and applicants. In 2013, 29 adaptive bicycles were awarded to the contest winners; so far in the 2014 contest, 76 adaptive bicycles are included in the prizes, surpassing the organizations goal to give away 75 bikes.
Entrants submit a photo of their child and a short description of their need for an adaptive bicycle and obtain 50 nominations before the contest ends on March 25, 2014 at 11:59 am (Eastern Standard Time).
