Disability: Workshops celebrate Children's Month by delivering adapted bicycles

The Córdoba-based club celebrated an agreement with the Jean Maggi Foundation

In commemoration of Children's Day, the Jean Maggi Foundation and Club Atlético Talleres, through their Branches, are carrying out a special campaign to bring joy, inclusion, and mobility to children with motor disabilities.

Thanks to this initiative, adapted bicycles will be delivered to beneficiaries between 4 and 15 years old (4 to 15 years old), prioritizing those who can propel them independently and autonomously.

The Infancias en movimiento campaign is aimed at children from 4 to 15 years old (4 to 15 years old). The delivery is intended exclusively for people with motor disabilities, with a certificate to prove it.

The essential condition to be a beneficiary is that the person can move the bicycle by their own means, without assistance from third parties, thus ensuring their autonomy and independence, while the number of available bicycles is limited; therefore, a personalized selection process will be carried out.

How to register for the Talleres and Jean Maggi Foundation campaign

Interested parties must complete the form registration through the following link.

Once registration is completed, the Foundation's staff will contact you to proceed with the pre-selection of each beneficiary. A photo and video of the child will be requested for the dissemination of the solidarity action.

Selection and delivery: An Evaluation Committee will analyze each case individually, conducting tests with the available models and selecting beneficiaries according to the established criteria. The delivery will be personalized and aimed at enhancing the autonomy of the children who benefit. Children from all Argentine provinces may apply.

Important conditions: The bicycle must be propelled by the beneficiary without assistance, for personal use in recreational or sports activities. The initial delivery will be for a period of 2 months, allowing the beneficiary to try and evaluate the usefulness of the equipment. If progress is evident and use is effective during that period, the final delivery will be arranged.

It is mandatory for the beneficiary to send photographs or videos showing the use of the equipment and to maintain contact with the institution. If the bicycle is not used for a certain period, the Foundation must be informed for its return, except in cases of normal wear and tear.
