About

JoyRide is a car club exclusively for kids with special needs. During JoyRide events, kids trade the everyday worry of doctor’s visits and medication for a chance to cruise in high-end or one-of-a-kind cars. Along with car rides, JoyRide kids enjoy a chance to make new friends, network and build a sense of belonging.

What To Expect

JoyRide events aim to put smiles on faces by creating a fun and engaging atmosphere for kids with special needs. Kids get an up-close look at the unique cars on display by sitting in them and even going for rides! JoyRide events also create a sense of community by bringing families together.

About The Ride

Cars maneuver through a marked course at a controlled speed. Parents watch as their kid rides through the course in an enclosed parking lot. Booster seats and seat belts ensure kids are safe. It’s recommended to bring noise cancelling headphones for kids who are sensitive to noise. Videos and pictures are captured and distributed after each JoyRide event. JoyRide limits car rides to one ride per event.

Parent

It was a spectacular event and we look forward to participating as a member and as volunteers in the future. Thank you for providing our son, and other special friends like him, a chance to smile!!! His smiles today made me cry in the most wonderful way!

Driver

The smiles on the faces of the kids and their parents were worth everything; I was in tears for most of the day. It was a well-run, well-coordinated, and I look forward to participating again and again. I am so very glad to have been a small part of something truly joyful.

Volunteer

JoyRide team, this was amazing! I witnessed an interaction between one of the drivers and a little boy, which had four adults in tears. You should be so proud. So happy to have been part of the event!
