For the fourth consecutive year, Friendship Circle is holding the Michaela Noam Kaplan Great Bike Giveaway,  a national contest in which children with special needs can win their very own adaptive bike.  We are partnering with adaptive bike companies from around the United States to provide some of the best adaptive bikes to the children and young adults who need them most.
Providing adaptive bikes to children with special needs gives them more than just a good time and exercise. These bikes enable a child with special needs to feel like they belong. It gives them a sense of confidence, freedom, and pride that is so essential for all children.  Over the past two years we have thankfully found many willing partners who have helped make the dream of owning a special bike possible for many special needs families. Please join us in 2015 to give this essential gift to even more children with special needs.
The Michaela Noam Kaplan Great Bike Giveaway will be hosted on greatbikegiveaway.com.  Each style of adaptive bike will have its own dedicated contest page. Visitors can view the  different types of adaptive bikes available, decide which bike will best fit their child’s needs and enter that contest. Participants may only enter to win one bike).
Entering the contest is simple and easy, just a few details and you will be on your way toward winning an adaptive bike. Each bike page has a space where users can enter the contest. Submit a picture of your child with special needs along with a short explanation of why your child needs an adaptive bike.
There are two ways a child can win:  the Bike Raffle or by Most Votes.    Each submission must be nominated by 50 friends and family members to be eligible to win a bike.   One bike in each contest will be given away to the entry with the most nominations.
By asking people for nominations, participants will draw more visitors to the Great Bike Giveaway Contest and increase the amount of donations. This in-turn will add more bikes to the raffless and give more children with special needs a chance to win an adaptive.
At the close of the contest the entry with the most nominations in each bike contest will win a bike. A drawing will be held to determine the winners of the remaining adaptive bikes in each contest.
