Micro Scooters are running a charity campaign, to send refurbished Micro Scooters to the Tumaini Children\u2019s Home in Kenya.<\/p>\n
Parents are being urged to send any Micro Scooters no longer being played with back to the company’s headquarters free of charge.<\/p>\n
Each scooter will be safety checked, refurbished and sent to the children’s home for them to play with.<\/p>\n
The orphanage takes care of children whose parents have died of aids, with many of the children also suffering from the disease themselves.<\/p>\n
The company is planning on sending 60 scooters to Kenya at the end of the year, to make sure every child at the orphanage has their own to play with.<\/p>\n
Families are also encouraged to include a letter with their scooter to add a personal touch to their donation.<\/p>\n
Founders of Micro Scooters UK, Anna Gibson and Philippa Gogarty, said:\u201cAs mums ourselves, we know how invaluable scooters have been for our children. We hope that Scooter Aid can help less fortunate children rediscover their childhood through play – a gift no child should be without\u201d.<\/p>\n
