Our volunteers work tirelessly to enable this to be a free service for all our passengers. We do not want cost to be a prohibitive factor in experiencing the joy and inclusivity of our trishaw rides. However, for our service to remain sustainable, we need your support.
There are various ways that Cycling Without Age Chapters around Australia can be supported, either financially or by donations-in-kind.
You can help prevent loneliness and isolation.
Loneliness and isolation is a major challenge for older people, and people with disabilities or reduced mobility, so we help reconnect people with their community and with their local environment.
Your donation will help CWAA expand it’s beautiful and effective support to more communities across Australia – that is our purpose: to help local chapters of CWAA to get established and flourish so more people are supported in more places.
Your donation will help us to:
-
Help local people set up new chapters in unsupported communities
-
Mentor the local chapter throughout its mission
-
Lend them a Trishaw to accelerate the startup of rides for the community
-
Provide all the training materials and support materials, IT platforms and other essential tools to run a successful local chapter.
Your donation can do this. We can’t do it without you.
