The Ride was inspired by ​​Ava, who has Cerebral Palsy (a neurological muscle disorder) and Epilepsy (abnormal brain activity which can cause sudden seizures at random). She is eight years old, a twin to Stella, big sister to Jonas and Billie, and the light of my life. She fights each and every day to do the simple tasks that we all take for granted. We have a saying in our house --- “YES I CAN” --- and she works harder than anyone I know and does it with grace, determination, and humor.” /// Support the Cause, Donate Here /// Easterseals DuPage & Fox Valley (website) At Easterseals DuPage & Fox Valley, we believe every child deserves to thrive in an inclusive community.
