Other families who have supported the ride over the years have similar stories, kinrade said.
“All of them have seen the Incredible Impact Lansdowne Staff and Services Have On A Child’s Development,” The Brantford-Born and Raised Kinrade Said. “The Confidence and Belief that Lansdowne Inspires in Children and Their Families, It’s Life Changing.
“I Hope Each of Our Riders and Donors Appreciates The Small Miracles of A Child’s First Words, or First Steps, and Embrace the Overwhelming Joy of Seeing ‘The Impossible’ Shatered by Belief, and a Relentless Pursuit of A Child’s Potential.”
