The group built cars for five children to keep this year, and an additional car will be kept at the College of Medicine to help recruit children for future builds and get an idea of what modifications the cars would need.
During Penn State Harrisburg’s “We Are Weekend” festivities in October, children and their families came to campus to receive their vehicles and test drive them before taking them home.
Students designed the structure [of the cars] to keep the children safe within the vehicle on their own using PVC pipe, kickboard, and other materials.
