Meet Aaron!
Aaron is a joyful and determined 9-year-old who has already overcome more than most people face in a lifetime. In 2022, he survived a devastating bus accident that left him with a severe leg injury and the loss of one arm. He spent six long months in the hospital and now lives with a titanium plate in his skull. But Aaron hasn’t let any of that stop him. Today, he walks with braces, uses a wheelchair for mobility, and continues to impress everyone around him with his incredible strength and spirit.
Despite everything he’s endured, Aaron is excited about life. He loves building Legos, collecting toy cars, and watching YouTube videos about sports cars and races. He’s a huge fan of Spiderman, loves soccer and basketball, and can’t get enough fried chicken and fries. When he’s not talking about his favorite car models, you’ll find him at the park playing with remote-controlled cars or dreaming up new Lego creations. After years of medical home-bound schooling, Aaron is thrilled to return to school this fall.
Aaron’s physical therapist believes a therapy trike designed to accommodate his amputee arm could make a big difference in his life. Not only would it build strength, coordination, and endurance, but it would also give him more independence and chances to socialize with other kids. Aaron is an incredible warrior—fearless, strong, and ready to ride into his next chapter.
