In April, my husband Todd and I entered our son Easton (18q-, autistic) into Friendship Circle’s Great Bike Giveaway. This contest provides an opportunity to win a specialized bike as well as provides a fundraising platform for friends and family members. Easton has difficulties with most outside activities due to his global delay and low muscle tone. He is unable to petal a bicycle by himself and we thought a tandom bike that my husband and I could help petal, would be amazing for him! We were truly blessed and excited to be a part of the Great Bike Giveaway which is held once a year.
