Beavercreek Pathways branch manager Angela Jackson presented Leti Hall, President of Greenebucs, with a check for $2,900 to help purchase and assemble mobility tricycles for people with disabilities. “We are honored to be able to help disabled children and adults get their first bike,” said Jackson. “I can only imagine the joy parents must feel seeing their child ride a bike for the first time.”
Greenebucs is a non-profit organization with dedicated volunteers who believe that everyone should experience the joy of riding a bike. Greenebucs provides free custom Amtryke Therapeutic Tricycles to individuals who cannot operate a traditional bicycle.
“Each trike costs Greenebucs between $700 and $1400 and it is customized to fit the person’s specific disability,” said Hall. “Thanks to our new partnership with Bicycle Corps of America, our tricycles are now manufactured in the US which cuts down on wait time for our clients.”
