We are having a blast working with these students! They are curious, empathetic, and willing to try new things. One student used a power drill for the first time, another learned to twist on wire nuts, and everyone got turns with the screwdriver.
This week they’re building cars for pint-sized drivers Joel, Talim, and Dande. Delivery is Friday evening! 🚘
Here’s a fun throwback to when we hosted our very first GoBabyGo high school summer camp in 2017. Several of these students came to Wichita State for college and are now in their junior and senior years! 🤩
👀 I spy our GoBabyGo lab! Take a look at minute 1:31.
Thanks to GoBabyGo alum Dimitri for giving a great overview of our lab and program!
Our very first car delivery was eight years ago—and this was the very first news article written about it.
🌱 From this small beginning we’ve grown into a registered student organization that’s served over 180 children!
🔗 Read about our first delivery:
Students modify car for child with disabilities A standard engineering project took on a deeper meaning when Wichita State University engineering and physical therapy students watched 3-year-old Jocelyn McNeese drive around in a toy car they modified for her special needs.
We love seeing their reactions! 🤩
So many happy little customers this weekend! 🚘
Pure happiness today! 😍🥰
