Hello my name is Jessica and I have a family of two little boys who are autistic and 1 non verbal child who uses ASL. We have lived for more than 3 years without transportation and due to this we walk miles to go where we need to. Now that my sons are approved for many therapies and other needs outside of our home, some state provided help has become either unreliable or not in access due to unforeseen sitations out of our controll.
We are a small special family that needs help with transportation, but sadly because of my children needing constant help as well as theraphy and now possibly homeschooling for my nonverbal child, I can not work away from home and most locations that are WFH have denied me due to my kids being home in the background etc. We are looking for transportation help, and, after many days of researching we found that an Ebike will suit our needs since it doesn't require licenses, insurance, etc to be able to go where we need. The only problem is it's a lot of money. With the current sales going on the Ebike in question has many sales and free adaptions to it for my kids to ride safely.
With this bike me and my two boys will be able to stop walking to all our destinations and safely be able to get groceries, see their doctors and go to theraphy without any risks or having to wait on State transport that 80% of the time never arrives or is late resulting in missed OT, Speech and Pediatrics visits.
Any donations will help, we are not a family that generally asks for help unless it's for a big big reason and I believe this is one. We will finally after 3 years be able to get around without the risk of walking on roads with no side walks or walking in general during cold weather etc.
*in case we do not make the goal by the sale of the bike we have made the goal to the bikes original cost to cover its fees. I have attached images of the bike along with the accessories it has provided.
We thank anyone from the bottom of our hearts to anyone and everyone who is able to help, even if it's just a little.
