Omaha iCan Shine Camps Hosts: Pediatric Therapy Center, Autism Society of Nebraska, & Down Syndrome Alliance of the Midlands The iCan organization began in 2007.

iCan Shine is an international charitable nonprofit organization that collaborates with local organizations (such as PTC, ASN, and DSA) to conduct five-day โ€˜iCanโ€™ programs in 35 States and Canada serving nearly 3,000 people with disabilities each year. Since then, they have successfully taught approximately 20,000 people with disabilities to ride a conventional two-wheel bicycle. The impact of learning to ride a bicycle independently, and their high level of success in helping people with disabilities accomplish this feat, continues to drive demand for iCan Bike programs. Approximately 80% of the people who participate in the iCan Bike program learn to ride a conventional two-wheel bicycle independently (at least 75 feet with no assistance) by the end of five-day program while attending for only 75 minutes each day! The remaining 20% make tremendous progress towards this goal and leave the program accompanied by family members trained as โ€˜spottersโ€™ to pick up at home where they leave off! More recently, iCan Shine introduced iCan Swim and iCan Dance programs. These programs have been quite successful and demand for them is growing steadily. Our local organizations are thrilled to be able to offer Bike and Swim annually for our community!

Because of your generosity, children experienced something truly life-changingโ€”the freedom, confidence, and independence that comes with riding a two-wheel bike.

Every milestone reached, every proud smile, every happy tear, and every family celebrating together happened because you believed in this mission.

Your support didnโ€™t just fund an event. It helped create memories, build confidence, foster independence, and remind families that they have an entire community cheering them on.

To each of our incredible sponsorsโ€”thank you for investing in these riders, their families, and a more inclusive community. Your impact will be felt long after camp ended.
