Athletes Helping Athletes Foundation
Athletes Helping Athletes (AHA) provides adaptive bikes to children with permanent physical disabilities who are 18 years and younger that can self-propel without assistance.For the last several years AHA has specialized in covering either:1) 100% of the cost of handcycles for youths under the age of 18 whose families would not be able to afford those handcycles without the assistance of AHA; and,2) to the extent possible, splitting the cost with other qualified charitable organizations for some of the handcycles, thereby increasing AHA's reach (AHA can obtain handcycles from manufacturers sometimes at an approximate 30% discount to cost and then typically funds approximately one-half the remaining cost after contributions made by other qualifying charitable organizations, thereby increasing AHA's reach to additional children).
