Nonprofits modify electric toy cars for children with disabilites

Nonprofits get together to make toy electric cars accessible for children with disabilities.

“Going Trick-or-Treating as kids, or racing with your friends in the park something like that is something we should never take for granted,” Co-founder and CEO of Magical Motors, Aanand Mehta said.

Throughout the day, over 40 robotics club students worked on modifying electric toy cars for a "Jeep Hack." The event was a collaboration between Boeing, the Si Se Puede Foundation and the Degrees of Freedom Robotics Team.

Their goal is to pair families with children who have physical adaptive needs with their own personalized electronic toy car, helping them increase their independence and bringing joy.
