Meet Wilson and Rita
Wilson is 7 - full of dreams, joy, and imagination. His little sister Rita is 5, always smiling and full of wonder. She’s non-verbal and uses sign language to communicate.
With the rising cost of living, two bikes were simply out of reach.
But thanks to kind-hearted people like you, we were able to say yes - and their dream came true.
Variety – the Children’s Charity presented brand-new bikes, helmets, and locks just in time for the holidays.
As Wilson took off - wobbly, then soaring - his smile said it all.
Those bikes gave Wilson and Rita more than a ride. They gave them freedom. Confidence. Belonging.
“We’ve had a tough year financially. A bike would mean freedom, fun, and feeling like a normal kid again.”
“My daughter’s been asking for a bike for over a year. She just wants to ride with the other kids.”
“We just can’t afford a bike right now, and he keeps asking. It would mean so much.”
“He’s been talking about riding to footy training, but we just can’t make it happen. It breaks my heart to say no.”
