Each year, the Philadelphia Business Journal selects Philadelphia-area companies and nonprofits partnering to make a big impact on our local community—through donations, social impact, or special initiatives. We’re honored to announce that our Every Child Deserves a Bike partnership with the Flyers Alumni Association received a 2023 Faces of Philanthropy award!

Thanks to the generosity of the Flyers Alumni and our Help Hope Live support community, we’ve been able to present dozens of Freedom Concepts customized bikes to local kids living with mobility-impacting disabilities.

These bikes deliver more than movement.

They are therapeutic tools that stimulate key muscle groups and improve health and mobility while fostering greater community connection, family memories, and pure childhood joy.

A presentation slide at the 2023 Faces of Philanthropy awards reads Philadelphia Flyers Alumni Association & Help Hope Live. Two photos show Help Hope Live’s Kelly Green and members of the Flyers Alumni Association with smiling adaptive bike recipients through the Every Child Deserves a Bike program.

Support for our mission delivers more than just fundraising—to our local community and a national network of hope.

Make a donation today and celebrate the life-changing impact of trusted medical fundraising and resources that lift and encourage communities nationwide.
