WSUs GoBabyGo builds cars for children with disabilities, made special delivery Friday [Video]

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – Some Kansas kids have another way to get around, thanks to Wichita State University and high schoolers.

GoBabyGo brings together Wichita State University students in engineering and physical therapy to create the rides. Over the last eight years, it has delivered custom ride-on cars to more than 100 children.

Organizers say this is a great way to serve the community and help people in need.

“So a lot of times, they may have received services but never had the chance to give back. So this gives them the opportunity. It’s very important for them to feel needed and important. And part of the process for serving these children through GoBabyGo,” said Samantha Corcoran, the associate engineering educator for GoBabyGo.

The program partnered with Envision and built customized ride-on toy cars to give to three children who have disabilities. The cars are made to accommodate disabilities.

Friday was delivery day.
