This child, who would otherwise never be able to have the opportunity to exercise, is not able to walk due to his
knee-caps flipping but can use a tricycle like this very well. Unfortunately his family could not afford anything like this
nor could his limited insurance help them in any way. Last fall, one of the Rotary e-Club’s members noticed this need
and proposed the Houston-based project to her eClub and it was accepted
