LSU Capstone: Sighted Guide Cycle Club for LSVI

Help Us Make Cycling Dreams Come True!

We're a group of passionate Mechanical Engineering students from Louisiana State University, and we're on a mission to create something truly special for the students at The Louisiana School for the Visually Impaired (LSVI).

Imagine the freedom and joy of riding a bike with your friends—feeling the wind in your hair, the sun on your face, and the thrill of adventure ahead. For many of us, this is a childhood memory we cherish. But for visually impaired students, it's a dream they've yet to experience.

That's where we come in. Meet our team: Caleb, Rebecca, Miles, Keaton, and Michael. We've partnered with Jennifer Gaudet, a dedicated PE coach at LSVI, to bring this dream to life through our Capstone Senior Design Project, the "Sighted Guide Cycle Club."

Our goal? To design and build a one-of-a-kind six-person bike specifically tailored to the needs of visually impaired students at LSVI. With your support, we can create an inclusive and empowering cycling experience for these incredible students.

But we can't do it alone. Your donation will help us purchase the materials and equipment needed to build the bike, ensuring it's safe, comfortable, and accessible for all riders. Every dollar you contribute, from specialized components to innovative design features, will make a difference.

Not only will your donation help us create this dream bike, but it will also make a meaningful impact on the lives of the students at LSVI. By allowing them to participate in a safe and enjoyable physical activity, you're empowering them to break barriers, build confidence, and experience the thrill of riding a bike with their friends.

So, are you ready to be a part of something incredible? Join us on this journey to make cycling dreams come true for Jennifer and her students at LSVI. Together, we can create a world where everyone can experience the joy of bike riding. Thank you for your generosity and support!

With gratitude,

Caleb, Rebecca, Miles, Keaton, Michael, and the entire LSVI community
