1st ANNUAL CORK-N-BOTTLE CHARITY MOTORCYCLE RUN
The Cork-N-Bottle will be hosting our 1st Annual Charity Motorcycle Run to raise funds to support children and adults with Autism and other non-speaking individuals. All net proceeds from The Freedom Ride will be donated to Twenty-Six Foundation - a 501(c)(3) charitable organization (T.I.N. 93-4312705) dedicated to supporting non-speaking individuals through scholarships for Spelling to Communicate (S2C) programs and services. Everyone deserves to have their voice heard! We are excited to support this cause that is near and dear to us at the Cork-N-Bottle!
Date: Sunday, August 11, 2024. Check-in starting at 8:30am / Kickstands Up at 10:00am
Location: Cork-N-Bottle, 6724 Mayfield Rd, Mayfield Hts., OH 44124
Price: $35 Rider, $20 Passenger
We hope you can join us for a day of supporting non-speakers. An opportunity to meet new friends or business acquaintances. This event will certainly put a smile on your face, but not as big a smile as we can put on the faces of non-speakers by helping to support their communication journeys.
WONDERING WHAT INSPIRED THE CORK-N-BOTTLE TO HOST THIS EVENT?
Max (Passenger) is 18 years old and was diagnosed with Autism at age 2. He is considered a non-speaker, meaning he is unable to use speech as his primary form of communication. For 16 years, Max was unable to communicate his needs/wants/feelings etc. which left his family feeling hopeless about his future.
In 2020, his mother read the book titled, “Underestimated: An Autism Miracle.” This book was written by J.B. Handley and his teenage son Jamison. The two tell the remarkable story of Jamison’s journey to find a method of communication, Spelling to Communicate (S2C) that allowed him to show the world that he was a brilliant, wise, generous, and complex individual who had been misunderstood and underestimated by everyone in his life.
Inspired by the book, Max was immediately enrolled in the S2C program and has excelled beyond belief. After 16 years of silence, he is finally able to communicate and show his true potential. Learning about Max & his life in silence has been truly inspiring. He didn’t hold back on sharing that his dream has always been to ride a motorcycle. When the opportunity arose, Max chose the Cork-N-Bottle as his destination.
Twenty-Six Foundation was founded by Max’s Mom, and is dedicated to raising awareness and financial funding to support non-speaking individuals through access to Spelling to Communicate programs and services. All net proceeds from The Cork-N-Bottle Charity Motorcycle run will be donated to Twenty-Six foundation.
