My friend Nikki and her husband are from Washington. Nikki and I served together in the Young Women's program at our church, years ago. They moved to Utah and had two kids, Hannah and Ben. I haven't seen her in years but we've kept in touch on Facebook. Ben was born with Cerebral Palsy and uses a wheelchair. He's entered in The Great Bike Giveaway, which provides adaptive bikes for kids with special needs. They're looking for donations and votes. (From the site: In case we do not raise enough money to give a bike to all 600 entrants, bikes will be awarded in a vote contest and drawing. The entrant with the most votes in each bike category will receive a bike. The rest of the bikes in the contest will be given away via a random drawing. In order to be eligible for the drawing, entries must have a minimum of 100 votes.) Can you help Ben out? Even if you can't donate, stop by and vote! Thank you! www.friendshipcircle.org/bikes/2016/03/ben-k-3/

I voted too.
I have a friend who recently trialled a modified bike for her son with spina bifida. She's hoping to get one eventually, but they're quite expensive.
I hope Ben is successful!

I voted. Hope Ben gets a new bike. If we can vote daily, please bump this up every morning so we can have easy access to vote.

Wish I could vote - but it looks like only Facebook users. Good luck to Ben!

Bumping this up. It would appear that a person can only vote once as I tried again today and it said I had already voted.
